Crime Fiction Alphabet - summarising the letter J

The Alphabet in Crime Fiction - a Community Meme.

The letter for the week beginning 7 December was the Letter J

This week we have had 10 contributors.
P.D. James appeared twice, but this time there was a lot of variety.
You may have noticed over the weeks that participants have imposed their own little challenges: Bernadette is only using single word titles for her posts, Craig is trying to focus on New Zealand authors.

Tomorrow we move to the 11th letter: K.
How about you? Will you join in?
