One of the best homicide detective novels is 'The Silence of the Lambs' by Thomas Harris. It features the brilliant and terrifying Dr. Hannibal Lecter and the determined FBI agent Clarice Starling. The psychological depth and the cat - and - mouse game between the characters make it a classic.
Agatha Christie's 'Murder on the Orient Express' is a must - read. The setting on the luxurious Orient Express train is captivating, and Hercule Poirot's investigation into the murder is full of intrigue. Christie is a master of the mystery genre, and this novel showcases her ability to create complex plots and a large cast of suspects.
I really like 'Gone Girl' by Gillian Flynn. Although it's not a traditional detective team novel in the sense of a group of detectives, the way the police and the characters in the story piece together the mystery of Amy's disappearance is quite fascinating. The cat - and - mouse game between the characters is a big part of what makes it so engaging. And then there's 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' from Stieg Larsson's series. Lisbeth Salander is a brilliant and unorthodox 'detective' of sorts, and her relationship with Mikael Blomkvist adds depth to the story as they uncover dark secrets.
I recommend 'A Swindle within a Swindle' to you. Although the genre was different, the plot was generally similar. It was also a story full of conspiracies and scams. The protagonist, McGonagall, faced various traps and confrontations with interest groups in the business world. There were also a lot of games within games and schemes within schemes. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
One common theme is the pursuit of justice. Detectives strive to find the truth and ensure the killer is brought to justice. Another is the exploration of human nature, both of the criminal and those affected by the crime. And mystery is also a key theme, with the detective having to solve puzzles and follow clues to figure out who the murderer is.
Agatha Christie is one of the most renowned. Her detective Hercule Poirot is iconic. She crafted complex murder mysteries with intricate plots and a large cast of suspects. Another is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who created Sherlock Holmes. Holmes' deductive reasoning skills made him a beloved detective in literature.
Well, 'The Postman Always Rings Twice' by James M. Cain is a classic hard boiled detective novel. It has a gritty and somewhat amoral atmosphere. Then there's 'I, the Jury' by Mickey Spillane. His detective, Mike Hammer, is a tough - as - nails character. And 'The Thin Man' by Dashiell Hammett (besides 'The Maltese Falcon') is also highly regarded for its engaging story and interesting characters.
Michael Connelly's 'The Black Echo' is a great choice. It features detective Hieronymus 'Harry' Bosch. The novel has a gritty and realistic portrayal of police work in Los Angeles. It's full of twists and turns as Bosch tries to solve a murder case that has ties to his past in the Vietnam War.
I would recommend 'The Big Sleep'. It has a lot of the classic noir elements like a tough detective, a femme fatale, and a convoluted mystery. Plus, Raymond Chandler's writing style is very engaging and it's easy to get into the story.

I recommend a mystery detective novel,"The Beginning of My Life in the Ming Dynasty." The protagonist was reborn as a second generation heir and encountered a series of near-death incidents. He had to find the murderer. However, he only had half a psychology experience and a few brainless detective novels. Could he find the murderer? I hope you like my recommendation. Muah ~
