Thank you, I knew chit chatters would help!
I have already reserved three books from the library. It is going to take me a while to order more, but it will be a labour of love This is what i do now, I order books in order from the library. It only costs 60p each and most of the time they have got the books I want. |

Slightly more thriller than crime - Daniel Silva.
And I'm deeply ashamed to admit this but I'm a bastard for a Lynda La Plante. |

Annie, I help out in a local charity bookshop
 (the only work I do now is voluntary work). Why not buy books from as little as 50p from your local charity shops in addition to reserving them from the library? |

Again, thanks everyone so much
Keep them coming as I am sure that others would like suggestions and we can keep this thread for future reference. Lee Ho Fooks, I used to buy books from charity shops and would do it again, as you say it would work out the same moneywise, but it takes too long to sort through loads of books to find the ones I want. I like getting them from the library as I can order a whole series in order, like I will be doing with the suggestions below. |

I loved Dorothy Sayers when I was young..Lord Peter Whimsey and his butler Bunter.
But you must have read them years ago Annie, I have no new suggestions, I apologise |

The Inspector Lynley books by Elizabeth George and the Inspector Rebus books by Ian Rankin are very good, far better than the subsequent tv versions.

i think what this topic proves Annie - within reasonable doubt
 is that Chit Chat is full of deviously minded individuals |

I don’t read many crime books. I prefer Phycological thrillers. |

If you fancy something with a Scots flavour ,and who doesn't, the Inspector Rebus novels by Ian Rankin are brilliant, earlier one's are best. Just finished 'The Terracotta Dog'by Andrea Camiller , Italy's top crime writer, lots of dark humour in there, and a good insight into the Italian mentality.

^^ Annie the length of time to locate and the sorting through are the real benefits of my "system"
 . The return to the shop, when read, of your "investment" is a given. |

I love the Robert Goddard books. Any other similar authors out there? Mysteries based mostly across a number of years. Thanks.

Not sure of the authors name but one who came up with the trilogy that is the last three Conservative Party manifesto's . Three wonderful works of fiction in which the crime was carried out by not one but two villains called Cameron and May who evaded justice and lived happily ever after on the proceeds .
