KARIN SLAUGHTER
I LOVE HER!!!
Can’t find anyone that measures up to her writing and character development. Lord knows I’ve tried while waiting for her next. The kept woman was VERY bad though. I have that a scathing review. Grant county are my faves. I’ll be re-reading them in the winter. ?
My favorite one by her is TripTych
That’s the 1st in the will Trent series. I thought the characters and the crimes were much better in the grant county series.
Rosemary Sutcliff
Kelly Armstrong
She is a great author.
Agatha Christie,
Anne Rice
Janet Evanovich would be my choice
