John D MacDonald's Travis McGee series (+ misc singles)
Simenon's Magrait (sp?) series
Chandler's Phillip Marlowe
Ed McBain's 87th Precinct
Connely's Reacher, Bosch
Everything Elmore Leonard wrote, incl some westerns

The other Tey I remember liking was "Brat Farrer" ( though I may have spelled that wrong).

Hello, Judy
I'm a raw newbie here. Was something posted by somebody for me in the wrong place? Not even sure what the right place is, but on the chance that it's here, I'll just post a link to the website for my new police procedural whose pub date is tomorrow.

Hi Susan, I'm new to these threads so I don't know the lingo but to me Golden Age is Hammett and Chandler and I'm not much for P.D.James & co. The one book I can name that did intrigue me was Josephine Tey's "A Daughter of Time." Modern (c 1950's?) Brit cop inverstigating the truth about Richard III.
