Crime novel or detective novel?
A crime novel typically focuses on the criminal act and its consequences, often from the perspective of the perpetrator, victim, or both. On the other hand, a detective novel centers around the investigation of a crime, usually by a professional or amateur detective. While both genres often overlap, the primary difference lies in the focus of the story – crime novels delve into the motivations and actions of the criminal, while detective novels revolve around the process of solving the crime. **

I recommend "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" by Stieg Larsson. This novel is a gripping detective crime story that follows journalist Mikael Blomkvist and hacker Lisbeth Salander as they investigate the disappearance of a young woman from a wealthy family. The book is filled with suspense, complex characters, and a compelling mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat. With its intricate plot and well-developed characters, "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" is a must-read for fans of detective crime novels. **

Canelo Crime Detective Jan Talantire Series 3 Books Collection Set by Nick Louth (The Last Ride, The Dark Edge, The Deep End) British Crime ThrillersDetective Jan Talantire Series 3 Books Collection Set by Nick Louth (The Last Ride, The Dark Edge, The Deep End) Discover gripping British crime fiction with the Detective Jan Talantire Series – 3 Books Collection Set by Nick Louth. This fast-paced collection includes The Last Ride, The Dark Edge, and The Deep End, following Detective Jan Talantire, a determined investigator facing dark secrets, dangerous criminals, and complex murder cases. Set against atmospheric British backdrops, these novels blend realistic police procedural detail, psychological depth, and suspenseful twists. The Last Ride On a midsummer's night, a stolen car packed with teenagers crashes at high speed on the southern edge of Bodmin Moor in Cornwall. DI Jan Talantire arrives at the scene to find the victims of the crash. It appears to be a tragic accident until a worried mother turns up at the scene of the accident. Her daughter, Jade, a friend of the joyriders, hasn't been seen since the previous night. The account dovetails with the statement of the householder who claimed to see a girl running near the crashed vehicle the moment he emerged. Was Jade in the car with her friends when it crashed, and if she was, why did she flee? And where is she now? The Dark Edge On her way home after an overnight shift, DI Jan Talantire hears the control room relaying an emergency. Someone has fallen to their death from one of the highest cliffs in Devon. Jan is nearby so she agrees to hold the fort until uniformed cops arrive. At the scene, a small knot of people have gathered, all of whom have some connection to the victim, Joanne Dexter. Could one of them have been involved in her death? When the Commissioner personally asks Jan to take charge of the case, she is taken aback such a small incident would usually be beneath a DI. But she soon realises there's far more to this case than first meets the eye. This fall was no accident. Joanne's work forced her into close contact with some dangerous people. Could she have gotten on their bad side? Or was her killer someone closer to home? The Deep End On Boxing Day a mystery woman's body is found washed up under Teignmouth Pier. She has no ID but is wearing a wetsuit. When the post-mortem shows heavy metal poisoning, DI Jan Talantire is called in. Talantire herself is caught in an ongoing game of cat-and-mouse against her nemesis Commander Brent West. Her complaint against him for abusive behaviour foundered when she was accused by the investigating panel of collusion with another complainant, PC Nadine Lister, to bring West down. With her career hanging by a thread, Talantire discovers that the route to solving the mystery is tangled up with the death of the woman on the Devon Coast. Brent West, it seems, will go to any lengths to protect his career. And that includes murder.12,99 £*Shipping: 2,99 £Secure redirect to the provider

The Bodies at Westgrave Hall Russian oligarch Alexander Volkov has invited 1000 guests to a party at his palatial Surrey residence, Westgrave Hall. But while giving a private tour of the library, a gunman kills Volkov, wounding his ex-wife and slaying her new beau.

Crime novel or detective novel?
A crime novel typically focuses on the criminal act and its consequences, often from the perspective of the perpetrator, victim, or both. On the other hand, a detective novel centers around the investigation of a crime, usually by a professional or amateur detective. While both genres often overlap, the primary difference lies in the focus of the story – crime novels delve into the motivations and actions of the criminal, while detective novels revolve around the process of solving the crime. **

The Last Ride On a midsummer's night, a stolen car packed with teenagers crashes at high speed on the southern edge of Bodmin Moor in Cornwall. DI Jan Talantire arrives at the scene to find the victims of the crash. It appears to be a tragic accident until a worried mother turns up at the scene of the accident. Her daughter, Jade, a friend of the joyriders, hasn't been seen since the previous night. The account dovetails with the statement of the householder who claimed to see a girl running near the crashed vehicle the moment he emerged. Was Jade in the car with her friends when it crashed, and if she was, why did she flee? And where is she now? The Dark Edge On her way home after an overnight shift, DI Jan Talantire hears the control room relaying an emergency. Someone has fallen to their death from one of the highest cliffs in Devon. Jan is nearby so she agrees to hold the fort until uniformed cops arrive. At the scene, a small knot of people have gathered, all of whom have some connection to the victim, Joanne Dexter. Could one of them have been involved in her death? When the Commissioner personally asks Jan to take charge of the case, she is taken aback such a small incident would usually be beneath a DI. But she soon realises there's far more to this case than first meets the eye. This fall was no accident. Joanne's work forced her into close contact with some dangerous people. Could she have gotten on their bad side? Or was her killer someone closer to home? The Deep End On Boxing Day a mystery woman's body is found washed up under Teignmouth Pier.

Talantire herself is caught in an ongoing game of cat-and-mouse against her nemesis Commander Brent West. Her complaint against him for abusive behaviour foundered when she was accused by the investigating panel of collusion with another complainant, PC Nadine Lister, to bring West down. With her career hanging by a thread, Talantire discovers that the route to solving the mystery is tangled up with the death of the woman on the Devon Coast. Brent West, it seems, will go to any lengths to protect his career. And that includes murder.12,99 £*Shipping: 2,99 £Secure redirect to the provider
