Hey all, I’m looking for thriller recs written in first person. Crime thrillers mostly, but any thriller would be helpful. Thanks.

The key to death’s door by @Mark is awesome.
Loved it x
Thanks @Simon. 🙂
No prob, credit where it is due.
The Big Sleep, Farewell, My Lovely and The Long Goodbye by Raymond Chandler. (Really, any Chandler but those are my favourites)
Some of the Reacher books are. Personal and Gone Tomorrow iff the top of my head.
Sweetpea by C J Skuse. I am eagerly awaiting the sequel In Bloom, out in August.
Hard boiled detective stories, like those Will talks about, tend to me mainly written in the first person. Robert B. Parker’s novels are another good example.
Robert Crais’ Elvis Cole books are great. Ross Macdonald’s Lew Archer novels follow in the tradition of Chandler’s Marlowe. And, ahem, my own Sam Dyke novels are also first person PI novels, set in the UK …
My book about ‘Jack the Ripper’ suspect Dr. Cream is written in the first person. It’s called ‘Prisoner 4374’. Will put up the link in another post.
