Acclaimed Aussie author Michael Robotham's Joe O'Loughlin series is always excellent. The Wreckage takes place between Baghdad, London, and Washington and would be a great read on its own.

I've finished The Moers Murders by Graham Brack
As soon as I saw it on GR, I bought a copy for myself. Here is my 5 star review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Maybe not a real 'thriller' but set in a time where there were no investigators, no police - but Mercurius has a very sharp mind 😉

The Collaborators
is a fun spy thriller. My four star review:https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Is there anyone whose mind John Boyne can't inhabit? In the 3rd book of his Elements Quartet, he gives us Freya, a talented burns specialist doctor, but a vengeful manipulator of the unwary. Fire is ironically chilling.

Here is my 4.38 rounded to 4 stars review of Say You're Sorry by Melinda Leigh:https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Crime Novel / Romantic Suspense
I read Invisible Helix by Keigo Higashino It is translated from Japanese. The author's books have been bestsellers in Japan. It is book 5 in the series, but worked for me as a stand alone. My 4 star review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...Also, my wife read a book on her kindle reader that I have not read, but shows up on my list of read books, because she gave it 5 stars on her reader, linked to my GR account through Amazon.

Candice Fox is known for her thriller novels, but this short audio story, Hunting Game is presented as an entertaining radio play, sound effects and all. Kidnappers have grabbed the young son of a greedy Big Pharma mogul, hated by the entire nation. 
My review of The Hunting Game
Just finished the latest full-length thriller from Candice Fox - an outback doozy - High Wire. What a complex, dark imagination she has!
My review of High Wire
Here is my 4.41 rounded to 4 stars review of Her Last Goodbye by Melinda Leigh:https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
2nd book in the Morgan Dane series
PI investigation + lawyer + a little romance
Great characterization
Multi-layered plot with some twists
I read Río Muerto by Ricardo Silva Romero It is more of a literary/historical fiction book than a thriller. It is about the civil war in Colombia. My 4 star review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Prey by Vanda Symon features sins of the past, but probably not the ones you are expecting . . . ⭐⭐⭐.7 https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Sandy your review went to the book instead of your review.
The Divide was a mildly unsatisfying murder mystery. My three star review:https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

A great book"
Sean, when I reply to you here, the title shows up above in my post, I can't read titles or authors' names of the books in your posts. Could you write the name of the book or link the title so we can see it? It's impossible on a mobile. 😊
