The left are completely brainwashed, you won't be able to reach them. There are still plenty of good authors, but even Grisham went woke and is the worse for it. And Jack Reacher died when Lee Child's son came on board. I'm assuming publishers are leaning left & if the authors don't comply they won't get published, even the oldies. If you haven't read these yet, you might like the Sam Eastland books; Inspector Pekkala, the Emerald Eye, was the most famous detective in all Russia. Alan Furst is a favorite, unless he also has turned to the darkside. Then there's Philip Kerr series with Detective Bernie Gunther set in Berlin during the War. There's another series about a police inspector in England that came with his wealthy family from Russia and he's the black sheep for being a cop, can't think of the author.
