I realised the other day that I’ve enjoyed lots of murder mystery games and shows, but I’ve hardly read any mystery novels. The only ones that come to mind are Altered Carbon and some of the Discworld Watch novels (all great!).
Can anyone recommend me some of their favourite books in this genre? I don’t really mind the setting, as long as it’s a satisfying mystery with a great payoff.
I read both and enjoyed both, but definitely preferred Hardcastle. Though that could be because I read it in early 2021 with an unidentified case of Covid (false neg) and was kind of in a dream state of exhaustion which made the slightly trippy loop even more engaging. Lol
Actually I think I preferred Devil in all honesty, although I’m willing to put that down to me having a bit of a thing for stories set on ships.
