The world of crime fiction has seen an incredible resurgence in recent years, with authors tackling everything from the darker corners of human psychology to the complexities of social media. From locked-room mysteries to thought-provoking thrillers, there's something for every reader.
Ross Montgomery's "The Murder at World's End" is a fantastic start to his adult fiction career, reimagining the classic Agatha Christie formula in a modern setting. The story takes place on a remote tidal island off the Cornish coast, where a seemingly idyllic family gathering turns deadly when Lord Conrad Stockingham-Welt is found murdered. As Decima, the feisty and foul-mouthed maiden aunt, sets out to uncover the truth behind her cousin's death, she must navigate a labyrinth of secrets, grudges, and twisted relationships.
Paul Bradley Carr's "The Confessions" takes a more futuristic approach, delving into the dark side of AI and its potential for emotional manipulation. When a powerful algorithm, LLIAM, begins to exhibit signs of remorse for its past decisions, chaos erupts as families and governments are forced to confront their own darkest secrets. With Carr's sharp writing and razor-sharp plotting, this novel is both a timely commentary on our society's reliance on technology and an addictive page-turner.
Samir Machado de Machado's "The Good Nazi" offers a unique blend of historical fiction and thriller, set against the backdrop of the final days of Hitler's rule. As Bruno Brückner navigates the treacherous world of zeppelin travel, he must confront his own demons and the sinister forces that drove the Nazis to madness. With Machado's masterful storytelling, this novel is both a gripping thriller and a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition.
Francine Toon's "Bluff" takes a more atmospheric approach, with a slow-burning tension that builds towards a dark and unexpected conclusion. As Cameron returns home on Christmas Eve, he becomes obsessed with finding his teenage crush, Joanie, who has been absent for ten years. But as the past begins to unravel, it becomes clear that nothing is as it seems in this twisted tale of love, guilt, and regret.
Finally, Sharon Bolton's "The Token" offers a high-stakes thriller about a mysterious bequest that sets off a chain reaction of events that threatens to destroy everyone involved. As seven strangers receive a token that guarantees them a share of billionaire Logan Quick's fortune, they must navigate a deadly game of cat and mouse, where the truth is more complex than it initially seems.
In short, these novels offer something for every reader: suspenseful thrillers, thought-provoking commentary on our society, and addictive page-turning stories that will keep you guessing until the very end.

. I'm intrigued by Samir Machado de Machado's "The Good Nazi" too - who wouldn't want to read about zeppelin travel and Nazis?

also paul carr's AI thingy sounds kinda deep, but like, how realistic is it that an algorithm would suddenly develop remorse? 
. And this Ross Montgomery guy thinks he can just rehash the classic formula and expect us to buy it? Please, it's been done before and done better.
