Thanks for the link. I've previously read The Alienist and it was indeed excellent. I enjoy Barbara Cleverly's Joe Sandiland books. I've added The Coffee Traders, The Silence and Morality Play to my TBR list.. :0) Another excellent historical thriller is Spies of the Balkans by Alan Furst. I've read two of the Night Soldier series so far and both have been excellent.

Thanks Bill - I haven't read ALan Furst yet. Enigma is one of my all time favorites.

I loved the movie version of Enigma too.

Thanks Bill, I just ordered Spy of the Balkans. Have
not read Alan Furst.

Yes Donna - the movie was terrific.

I've read and enjoyed Enigma and The Coffee Trader, though I think David Liss's 'Weaver' novels are even better than The Coffee Trader. I think I read The Athenian Murders but don't remember much about it so it can't have made much of an impression.

So many others I'd like to add, eg Robert Wilson's A Small Death in Lisbon, various novels by Arturo Perez-Reverte, Ian Pears...

Thanks Kate. Just put A Small Death in Lisbon on my to read list.
