Want New Exciting Thrillers Recommended by Bestselling Authors?

Writing thrillers and crime novels is my jam, so as you’d expect, I’m always on the lookout for them.

It is also a question I ask most crime authors I interview, because who better to ask for suggestions on my next read than the authors I adore?

Here are a few of the responses I’ve received, all conveniently compiled for you to check out at your leisure. Under the name of each bestselling/ award-winning author are the recommendations they shared with me

HANK PHILLIPPI RYAN

The author: Hank Phillippi Ryan is the nationally bestselling author of more than a dozen mystery novels. She has won multiple prestigious awards for her crime fiction: five Agathas, three Anthonys, the Daphne, two Macavitys, and for The Other Woman, the coveted Mary Higgins Clark Award. National reviews have called her a “master at crafting suspenseful mysteries” and “a superb and gifted storyteller.”

Here are her recommendations:

WRONG PLACE, WRONG TIME by Gillian McAllister–brilliantly and bravely structured.

ALL THAT IS MINE I CARRY WITH ME by William Landay—he breaks every single rule of novel-writing, and it is irresistible.

Iris Yamashita’s CITY UNDER ONE ROOF is unique and riveting.

Katie Gutierrez’s MORE THAN YOU’LL EVER KNOW—gorgeous and heartbreaking.

Lisa Jewell’s NONE OF THIS IS TRUE. She is a flat-out genius.
