The Salvation of a Saint or Journey under the Midnight Sun by Keigo Higashino. It’s unique in the sense that you’ll know the culprit from the beginning but how the crimes were perfectly executed that’ll leave you stunned. ?

@Shlok It is really good. Starts off slow in the beginning but it definitely picks up. 10/10 recommend.

You can’t beat Agatha Christie, she reigns supreme. ABC Murders, After the Funeral, At Bertram’s Hotel, Cards on the Table, Caribbean Mystery, Dumb Witness, Hercule Poirots Christmas, Lord Edgeware Dies, Mrs McGinty’s Dead, The Moving Finger, Murder at the Vicarage, A Murder is Announced, Peril at End House, Seven Dials Mystery, Towards Zero – these are some of my favourites, but most of them are great.

Just read Magpie Murders, an homage to Agatha Christie, great read! Just started The Dry by Jane Harper, so good so far. Also Michael Connelly, James Lee Burke or John Sandford all have great mystery series…
