Dodge’s 1952 novel, the basis for the Alfred Hitchcock film starring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly, gets a Library of Congress Crime Classics reissue, with a new introduction and notes by Edgar Award winner Klinger (editor of The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes). Fans of the movie and classic crime fiction will enjoy this story of honor among thieves.
The author of Where They Last Saw Her brings back Cash Blackbear (who last appeared in 2022’s Sinister Graves) in a tragic, unforgiving crime novel that emphasizes the perils of the foster care system for Indigenous children.
McCluskey’s gripping debut features an isolated island with a brooding, storm-tossed atmosphere, reminiscent of Ann Cleeves’s “Shetland Island” mysteries. The violence and collusion lead to a shocking conclusion.
The 12th “Second Chance Cat Mystery,” following Fur Love or Money, might have a few too many characters, but fans of the series, the author’s “Magical Cats” novels (written under the name Sofie Kelly), or Miranda James’s “Cat in the Stacks” mysteries will enjoy the book.
A violent, complicated story with links to the past. Although Cutter’s lectures can get a little wordy, readers of Victorian-set mysteries, such as Bridget Walsh’s The Tumbling Girl, will appreciate the creepy atmosphere and intricate conclusion.
Westerson’s sequel to The Twilight Queen finds its astute jester, an expert entertainer and gossiper, once again serving as reluctant inquisitor. Fans of mysteries set during the Tudor era will appreciate the historical details that are skillfully woven into Westerson’s gripping story.
The title is perfect because there is no one trustworthy in this novel of family and secrets, and readers will find themselves hoping for everyone to get their just deserts.
