Best Crime Fiction Reads so far in 2012 - multiple mentions

I have managed to collect mid-year lists from about 15 contributors and ended up with 156 titles, some of which are duplicates.

Today's list contains the "top" 14, and you will see there is one clear leader.
The number at the beginning of the line is the number of times the title was listed.

Tomorrow's list will give you the authors mentioned for more than one title, and then on Wednesday I'll list all the titles.


4 HOUR OF THE WOLF Hakan Nesser 2012
3 LAST WILL Liza Marklund
3 THE POTTER’S FIELD Andrea Camilleri
2 1222 Anne Holt  2010
2 ANOTHER TIME ANOTHER LIFE Leif Persson
2 BEFORE THE POISON Peter Robinson  2011
2 BLACK SKIES Arnaldur Indridason 2012

  1. Kerrie out of those fourteen books I read 5, have one on my TBR shelf and at least three on my wish list.

  2. Wow! I'm amazed. I've read eight of the 14 and have read the top four.

    I'm ready this week to read Black Skies and most of the other books are on my TBR list.
