2023's Most Anticipated Mysteries & Thrillers
Here's a handy list for those of us who tend to read a lot of mystery novels. Like, a lot a lot. There will be many murders to solve in 2023, and it’s important to budget your time properly.
We’ve gathered here some of the year’s most anticipated mysteries and thrillers, in a month-by-month breakdown. This way, you’ll know to save time in March for, say, London séances and in April for the solemn undertaking that is the new Dennis Lehane novel.
Speaking of beloved genre veterans, the first part of the new year also features brand-new books by Robert Dugoni and Rupert Holmes. (Wait, Rupert Holmes? The singer of The Pina Colada Song? That’s right.) Also look for the latest novels from more recent category heroes like S.A. Cosby, Jane Harper, and Stacy Willingham. If it’s literary acclaim you’re after, hey, look! It’s Rebecca Makkai! And Colson Whitehead! And Joyce Carol Oates!
Scroll over the book cover images below for more details, and add anything interesting to your Want to Read shelf.

As if my TBR isn't long enough!
flag
Does this page seem slightly off-center to anyone else... maybe the mysteries are making me paranoid
One of my icks is when the author’s name is larger than the title of the book. Thankfully this knocks some off my TBR list
So thrilled to see my debut I'LL STOP THE WORLD included on here! What a lovely New Year's surprise! Thank you!!! And good news to anyone adding it to their TBR: the release date is actually April 1, so you don't even have to wait for May or beyond :-)
I added quite a few from this list. A good number of authors I'd read before have new books due that I didn't know about. Thanks for the article.
There is nothing more optimistic than a to-read list!
I've added a few from this list to my want to read shelf. I'm also looking forward to the new Ruth Galloway book out at the end of this month.
The urge to add everything to my TBR is unreal lol!
Can't wait for all of these! Samantha Downing, Liv Constantine, and Rachel Hawkins...OMG!

Congratulations! I hope sales are tremendous!
Who writes these lists? They don’t excite me in the slightest.
So excited for a lot of these!! Also The Only Survivors by Megan Miranda
Looking for an engaging mystery, check out Off Kilter (the sequel to Brushed Off), my amateur sleuth romantic thriller based in L.A. which will be released on June 15.
Paul Doiron's, "Dead Man's Wake" # 14 in the Mike Bowditch series. June can't come soon enough! 🚤

And the new Val McDermid Karen Pirie book due out in October!
