Crime Thrillers USATop Fiction To ReadCrime Thrillers USA is about some of the best American authors of Police Procedurals, Crime Thrillers, Murder Mysteries, Detective Stories and Suspense Novels, even a Women's Murder Club.. For satisfactory recreational reading there is nothing better than a good murder mystery because they are some of the best books to read for relaxation and pleasure. And, we are not talking about potboilers either – there are writers who not only offer interesting characters and good plots (with all the twists and turns); but who are good writers of the language which adds immensely to the pleasure of reading. There are some key American authors who excel at this – my top nominations include: Michael Connelly, James Lee Burke, John Lescroart, Dennis Lehane, and Lawrence Block, Ed McBain
Lee Childs, Jonathan Kellerman, Robert K Tanenbaum, John Grisham, David Balducci, Jeffrey Deaver, James Patterson, Harlan Coben, Robert Crais, John Connolly. That’s an added pleasure but, they do have to be plotted well and offer protagonists whom you care about and are interested in…… such as Harry Bosch (Connelly); Matt Scudder (Block); Dave Robicheaux (Burke); Dismas Hardy and Abe Glitsky (Lescroart); Kenzie and Gennaro (Lehane.

“When I was just starting to write it (his current work), I asked my wife, Lisa, what she hoped to see in my next book, and she said she'd like to just sit down and spend some time with all of her favorite characters—not just Diz and Abe, but Frannie and Treya, and Wes Farrell, and Wyatt Hunt and Gina Roake. And that's pretty much what I used as my template for this one (The Victims).”
With Connelly et al (above) I recommend you start from the beginning of their series to obtain maximum benefit – all of them have maintained a high standard of storytelling and writing excellence throughout their works….... They don't just simply churn out novels to make a buck and then gradually decline into clichés, formulaic writing, contrived plotting or the implausible as some writers have done after initially giving us really good books to read...... Clive Cussler being a main offender at this. The best fiction novels are those which constantly maintain a standard of excellence and meet our expectations…… and in the crime genre ……. The above mentioned are among few who can claim to write top fiction books, consistently. A caveat – just because some writers are not included doesn’t mean that they don’t match up to those I have included – it’s simply that I haven’t yet added them in or I haven’t read them.

American or British mystery thrillers? I have purposely separated this category into American and British – mainly because I can’t decide which I like better. The cultural differences, locales, and perspectives are sufficiently different that it makes comparisons odious and much better to enjoy the two different styles as stand alones although they are of the same genre. I write this from an Australian perspective that is heavily influenced by a British heritage and significant American influence through media and political alliances ……. I can enjoy both worlds without being hindered by ‘native’ bias. return to home page fof Top Fiction Books

Crime thrillers, to maintain your interest, do not have to keep you guessing ‘whodunit’ (a la Agatha Christie style with Miss Marple) though that’s great if they do.
