Now that our read for September has been decided, it's time for everyone to nominate a book for our October 2017 read.

We are doing something a little different for 2017 monthly reads. Starting with January's read we are working our way backward in publication years :)

So - nominate a crime/mystery/thriller/suspense book which was published in 2007 for our October read. True crime or cosy mysteries are included in this :)

NOTE: Only the beginning of a series (if a series) please :)

This thread will be open until 13th September, then our nominations will go to the vote:) Good luck and have fun!

Authors and publishers, please don't nominate your own work!

This one always sounded really good to me. I love her dad's books, James Lee Burke's Dave Robichaux series. I graduated from Wichita State and James Lee Burke taught therearse before I attended and in the first two years that I was there, if memory serves me correct.

Judith I'd like to nominate The Broken Shore by Peter Temple. I love the Hornets Nest series and Tana French, but I've read those. Peter Temple is also the author of the Jack Irish series
