It lets the readers into the minds of its narrator: a messy, ordinary woman descending into an all-consuming obsession while trying to navigate the vagaries of contemporary life.
- Magpie Murders by Anthony Horowitz (2016) This book is a whodunit set in an idyllic English village in the 1950s — a mystery that is very Agatha Christie.

Gran’s first in the Claire DeWitt series was a shot of adrenaline straight into the arm of private eye fiction, a gleefully strange, esoteric, sometimes hallucinatory new rendition of a beloved genre. DeWitt is the self-proclaimed world’s greatest detective, learned in the techniques of Jacques Silette, the great master whose obscure theories and w...
More than any other book in the decade, Gillian Flynn’s mega-hitGone Girl captured the essence of female rage, as millions of well-dressed, seemingly content women used Flynn’s fearsome takedown of the patriarchy to unleash their inner discontent. There are so many reasons to praise this book, but to focus on the impact alone, Gone Girl not only us...
This moody noir follows a petty thief as he walks the streets of a cold and unfriendly city; he makes the mistake of opening his heart to a young woman and her son, only to be given a harsh reminder that human connections can be nigh-impossible to maintain in his walk of life. Nakamura’s eerie atmosphere and spare prose are on full display, and it ...
Santiago Gamboa’s reputation has been growing globally in recent years, but in the U.S. he’s still relatively unknown except among those steeped in contemporary Latin American noir and the latest evolutions of la novela negra. In Night Prayers, Gamboa presents the reader with his usual narrator-proxy, Santiago Gamboa, cultural attache. He’s station...
Lippman has made her reputation as one of the giants of crime fiction based in large part on the strength of her long-running, audacious private eye series featuring Tess Monaghan, but her standalone novels stand as towering achievements on their own right, and none is more powerful than her 2012 thriller, And When She Was Good. The story looks at ...
Trying to decide on the Megan Abbott book-of-the-decade is like trying to figure out the best crime books of the decade (i.e. a semi-arbitrary exercise in futility), but Dare Me, Abbott’s soon-to-be-on-television noir ode to the dangerous world of cheerleading feels like the most iconic. Abbott came up on the crime world through her lovingly render...
Trostky has a strange relationship with detective fiction. The dramatic tale of his assassination is both epic tragedy and compelling crime story; pursued by Stalin’s goons no matter how far away from the motherland his exile took him, Trotsky watched his family be winnowed away far from his protection until he, too, fell victim to Stalin’s assault...
When Hoffman’s second novel was released in 2016, a good deal of attention was given to the author’s continued work as a private investigator. But if you came to his fiction expecting a formulaic detective story, you’d be drastically mistaken. Every Man a Menaceis a sprawling, kaleidoscopic crime novel of shifting perspectives and shifting fortunes...
If I had to pick a single favorite book from this decade, Denise Mina’s The Long Drop would be an obvious choice—not only does Mina’s book have one of the most mature visions of the meaning of violence that I’ve ever come across, but it’s also gorgeously written, in a style that transports the reader to a mid-century Scotland weighed down by histor...
Bluebird, Bluebird, a modern masterpiece, particularly excels at representing the fraught, frictional relationships between race and justice, and freedom and oppressive social institutions in America. Darren Mathews is a black Texas Ranger living in East Texas, torn up about his allegiance to his state and his career. He’s tried to leave the state,...

- And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. It’s impossible to talk about mystery novels without immediately thinking of the legendary Agatha Christie.
- The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler. Raymond Chandler’s idea of mystery strays from conventions — for him it’s less about the intricate plot and more about the atmosphere and characters.
- Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. Perhaps better known by its major motion picture adaptation, Gone Girl is the ultimate mystery puzzle for the modern media age.
- The Postman Always Rings Twice by James M. Cain. The Postman Always Rings Twice is often lauded the most important crime book of the 20th century, and it's not hard to see why.
