If you really can't find a title you want to read with kill in it then okay Jackie.
What about Winterkill by Ragnar Jónasson
They are really two words put together.
I have been reading the Dark Iceland series and this is Book 6 and the finale.

Another question, to be a nuisance! For 'number in title', can the number in writing or does it need to be in numerals?

Great! Worked out well then Odette :)

I am struggling with P (psychological mystery). For some reason, I am really off of thrillers. I have noticed that so far most of the books chosen for P are psychological thrillers. Are there any that are just mysteries that would work? Or writers I can consider?I'm anxious enough without adding it to my reading.
