Happy #ThrillerThursday! First, congrats to our 2017 Anthony Award nominees:
Best Novel
A GREAT RECKONING by Louise Penny
Best First Novel
DESIGN FOR DYING by Renee Patrick
The winners will be announced at Bouchercon on October 15. Now on to this week’s new mysteries:
PERISH THE DAY by John Farrow
The “excellent”* final volume in Farrow’s Storm Murders trilogy has retired Montreal detective Émile Cinq-Mars investigating a series of murders during a fierce rainstorm at a New Hampshire college campus. “John Verdon fans will be pleased by Farrow’s pitting of his well-rounded lead against a puzzle worthy of the detective’s acuity.” — *Publishers Weekly, starred review
SIDNEY CHAMBERS AND THE PERSISTENCE OF LOVE by James Runcie
Also available in trade paperback
The sixth book in Runcie’s much-loved series, which has been adapted for ITV’s Grantchester starring James Norton, sees full-time priest, part-time detective Sidney Chambers plunged back into sleuthing when he discovers a body in a bluebell wood. “Superior… Fans of the earlier volumes and the successful TV adaptations will relish the latest chapters in the lives of a richly drawn and diverse cast of characters—and shed some tears along the way.” — Publishers Weekly, starred review
Thank you again for a wonderful list of books including your
own books which I love. I am so happy to see the Grantchester
books included I loved the TV series and miss it, as I am missing the Miss Fisher mysteries.
