March mystery thriller horror collage

This March we were solving crimes and reading horror with everything from psychological thrillers and gothic suspense to murder mysteries and vengeful spirits.

A HOUSE WITH GOOD BONES BY T. KINGFISHER

2 starred reviews, an Indie Next pick, and a LibraryReads pick!

“Highly recommended for lovers of Southern gothics, readers who like their horror to sneak up on them, and anyone who appreciates the voice of Kingfisher, no matter what genre she’s currently writing.”—Library Journal, starred review

“Kingfisher goes Southern gothic (Waffle House visits included) in this hilarious and gruesome contemporary horror novel. Horror fans who like a little whimsy on the way to a chilling climax won’t want to miss this.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review

WHAT HAVE WE DONE BY ALEX FINLAY

A LibraryReads Hall-of-Famer!

“[A] top-notch mystery thriller . . . Readers will eagerly follow the maze-like plot, with its many twists and turns, to the exciting conclusion. This isn’t to be missed.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review

RED QUEEN BY JUAN GOMEZ-JURADO

A bit of Clarice Starling and a lot of Lisbeth Salander make Antonia a thoroughly compelling character, who will return in two more translations to complete Gómez-Jurado’s trilogy, which is being adapted for streaming by Amazon.”—Booklist, starred review

THE RAVEN THIEF: A SECRET STAIRCASE MYSTERY BY GIGI PANDIAN

“Excellent . . . Pandian’s clever solution matches the challenge she sets for her endearingly imperfect lead. This brilliant homage to classic golden age authors such as John Dickson Carr augurs well for a long series run.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review

HE SAID HE WOULD BE LATE BY JUSTINE SULLIVAN

“This debut novel builds slowly, and has themes of marriage and motherhood set within the world of the New England upper class. This psychological thriller demonstrates . . . Sullivan should be considered an author to watch.”—Booklist

DEEP FAKE BY WARD LARSEN

“Fans of the There’s-Something-Wrong-with-the-President (or in this case, almost president) mini genre will find plenty to like.”—Publishers Weekly

TOTAL EMPIRE: A GARRETT SINCLAIR NOVEL BY A.J. TATA

“Lots of credible action, plenty of government traitors, and shocking losses fuel the action. Tata continues to rise among the ranks of today’s top military action writers.”—Publishers Weekly

ALL THAT IS HIDDEN: A MOLLY MURPHY MYSTERY BY RHYS BOWEN AND CLARE BROYLES

“When Molly Sullivan’s husband, police Capt. Daniel Sullivan, tells her he’s leaving the force to run for sheriff of New York County, backed by Tammany Hall despite his long opposition to the Tammany record of corruption, Molly is shocked and furious…Bowen and Broyles, who never disappoint, take a deep dive into the world of early-1900s New York.”—Kirkus Reviews
