Apparently there are also pages you can scan on your smart phone for additional material, something I wish I’d known while reading it the first time. If you frequently listen to audiobooks or read e-books, I would highly recommend considering a hard copy of this particular book, as Pessl includes pictures and documents to create a more immersive experience for the reader. Journalist Scott McGrath investigates the death of Ashley Cordova, the daughter of a controversial film director, but our protagonist quickly discovers that he too might be in danger. While many of the novels on this list are detective stories, Night Film is more of a thriller. The murder mystery starts right off that bat, and this novel doesn’t slow down from there. The murder victim is Simon, the creator of Bayview High’s very own gossip app, and all four suspects have a motive.
This book is basically The Breakfast Club meets Gossip Girl. Five students walk into detention, but only four walk out alive. If you’re looking for a compelling Young Adult murder mystery, look no further. I can only assume Sarah Bailey’s future novels will be even better. A second Gemma Woodstock novel is apparently in the works, so get into Sarah Bailey’s detective now with this impressive debut, and look forward to her upcoming releases. As she begins to uncover the secrets surrounding Rosalind’s death, Gemma discovers her former classmate’s life was a whole lot more mysterious and complicated than she had first imagined. Small town detective Gemma Woodstock is shaken by the death of former high school classmate Rosalind Ryan, who was found strangled and floating in the lake. Strike and Robin’s friendship develops throughout the series, so I really recommend starting with this one, the first in the series, and then reading the other two in order. While Strike is a fun character to read about, I find his assistant Robin Ellacott the most compelling. Strike is also connected to fame through his estranged rock star father, which makes his involvement in this high profile case more complicated. Of course, we quickly discover that her death was in fact not a suicide but a murder. In this novel, Detective Cormoran Strike investigates the suicide of famous actress Lula Landry. And yes, they are as good as you’ve heard they are.

As the title suggests, Advani interrogates six suspects, all very different people with different motives. In this novel, investigative journalist Arun Advani tries to get to the bottom of the murder of playboy Vicky Rai, who was killed at his own party. I was a big fan of Vikas Swarup’s novel Q&A, which was later adapted into the film Slumdog Millionaire, so when I heard Swarup had written a murder mystery, I already knew I was going to enjoy it. All of Tana French’s murder mystery books are filled with richly depicted characters and intriguing storylines however, this one in particular stands out for its unique setting and perspective. A boy is found murdered on the grounds of an all-girl boarding school, and the only lead Detective Stephen Moran has is a note on a bulletin board that says, “I know who killed him.” The novel is half told through the perspective of the detective as he works to solve the crime, and the other half is told months before the murder from the perspective of a teenage girl at the boarding school. This novel is teen boarding school fiction meets murder mystery, which is really the best of both worlds, as far as I’m concerned.
