I’m looking for suggestions for “well written” contemporary crime / mystery novels, and trying to not sound pretentious in the ask (lol).
Something in a similar vein to Dennis Lehane, particularly Shutter Island or even Cormac McCarthy’s books, with engaging characters and a lived in world. Something a couple tiers up from the beach/summer page turners (which are great in their own right!).
Kind of rambling, but open to all suggestions. Thanks!
