Terry Moore No Exit by Taylor Adams
Cindy Canestrari Did you ever read the 2012 book by William Landay, Defending Jacob? I couldn't put this book down! It's a suspenseful, character-driven mystery/crime thriller. Not sure what you're into but this is worth a read. Also I like Patricia Gibney's book series with detective Lottie Parker. Lots of twists and turns, character-driven, you will get hooked.
Matthew There is an annual award for exactly this type of engaging novel. Look up the "Ian Fleming Steel Dagger" award.
June Grainger I would go for a book by Steve Cavanagh, Thirteen, The Plea

Amy Payne The Marriage Lie by Kimberly Belle, Behind Closed Doors by BA Paris, Someone We Know by Shari Lapena and The Kind Worth Killing by Peter Swanson
Kimberly I am a fan of Kevin O'Brien. I'm not a huge reader, and a book has to be really exceptional to keep me engrossed. His books are well over 400 pages, and I read them in a week. I've taken over a month to read some books that are half the size. :) He has a new book out that I have already put on hold at my library!! I've been waiting for it!!
D The Escape Room by Megan Goldin
Brenna Maybe the Truth or Dare series by: Jacqueline Green. There's also The Pieces of Her by: Karin Slaughter
William Donovan You should read The Cellar. I enjoyed it very much.
Flighty_Z The Whisper Man, Sharp Objects, and The Perfect Child are some of my "most gripping thrillers" list! Also someone below recommended Blake Crouch and I highly agree
