I did the Jonathan Kellerman Alex Delaware books or the John Sandford Lucas Davenport and Virgil Flowers novels. I haven't read Lisa Gardner or Dean Koontz, so I'll check them out. I was also going to check out Tami Hoag. I was browsing books at the thrift store one day and just read a couple of paragraphs in one of her books and it struck me that she was a "possible."

I wasn't impressed Ritabert Apr 2024 #1

I've read Michael Connelly. Haven't read the Rebus mysteries. There was a British TV series Vinca Apr 2024 #2

Yes Rebus is based on the Rankin books Ritabert Apr 2024 #4

I'll check out Val McDermid. Haven't heard of that writer before. Vinca Apr 2024 #14

I like her stuff. Ritabert Apr 2024 #15

You're lucky I'm here to help, LOL NanaCat Apr 2024 #19

As noted, Ian Rankin's Rebus is the same one from the series NanaCat Apr 2024 #9

Dexter did write some strange stuff Ritabert Apr 2024 #11

It's funny. Sometimes I read a book series and they're so good I don't want to spoil it in my head Vinca Apr 2024 #12

I did read many of them. BlueKota Apr 2024 #6

Thanks. I'm not into fantasy at all, so maybe this particular series isn't for me. I was surprised at how many books Vinca Apr 2024 #13
