Kindall [Unlimited] asked James J. Cudney:

Hi James! I'm a big thriller fan, but lately I'm finding many of the ones I'm picking up (mostly new releases) are a little... boring. I've been following you for a while here and get a lot of great recs from your feed, can you recommend any really shocking or twisty thrillers (preferably released prior to this year)? Thanks so much!

James J. Cudney Hi. Sorry for the delay in responding. Work has been hectic and I don't always catch these notifications until I have a lazy Sunday morning to read my messages. I've really enjoyed Freida McFadden, a new author to me this year, tho she has a few dozen books already from the last few years. And one I found particularly twisty and surprising, but not totally surprising in some ways, was Darcy Coates and Dead of Winter (this year). From prior years, I'd recommend Lisa Jewell's The Family Upstairs or Robyn Harding's early books. How about you?
