Crime in all its forms is represented here. Find yourself immersed in a historical mystery in The Art of a Lie, set in London in 1749, where we follow a widow on the hunt for her stolen inheritance, or jump into a modern political thriller with Jo Nesbo's latest standalone thriller. The Mysterious Case of the Missing Crime Writer is a take on the classic whodunit that is rife with literary illusions and perfect for crime obsessives. A young detective investigates the disappearance of a crime writer whose past is even more mysterious than her fiction. Jonasson's love of classic crime is matched by that of Tom Mead, known for his ingenious locked room mysteries. His latest novel sees his cast stranded in a haunted house, with victims picked off one by one. Meanwhile, Peter Swanson entertains us with his own spin on the cat and mouse tale, telling his story backwards from the murderous fallout to the early secrets that bind his couple together - til death do they part.
