Crime Fiction Pick of the Month 2013 |
Many crime fiction bloggers write a summary post at the end of each month listing what they've read, and some, like me, even go as far as naming their pick of the month.
This meme is an attempt to aggregate those summary posts.
It is an invitation to you to write your own summary post for July 2013, identify your crime fiction best read of the month, and add your post's URL to the Mr Linky below.
If Mr Linky does not appear for you, leave the URL in a comment and I will add it myself.
You can list all the books you've read in the past month on your post, even if some of them are not crime fiction, but I'd like you to nominate your crime fiction pick of the month.
That will be what you will list in Mr Linky too -
e.g.
ROSEANNA, Maj Sjowall & Per Wahloo - MiP (or Kerrie)
You are welcome to use the image on your post and it would be great if you could link your post back to this post on MYSTERIES in PARADISE.
Well, July was my month to read legal mysteries, four in a row, all of them good for different reasons.
ReplyDeleteI'd have to say that The Collini Case by Ferdinant von Schirach, which was a nominee for the CWA Dagger Award, was my favorite. It's a stunning book and revelatory about German war crimes and the obstacles to justice. Excellent.
My crime fiction nomination is for the book “The Gemini Factor” by author Philip Fleishman (http://www.philipfleishmanmd.com/).
ReplyDeleteThis novel focuses on two seemingly unrelated detectives pushed to their limits whilst investigating the cases of their lifetime. Gruesome identical murders in two different countries and a web of clues that these two detectives can only figure out once fate brings them together. The novel covers mind bending subjects such as the telepathic connection between twins and the relationship between random events. The serial killers have a unique and gruesome “calling card” they leave with their victims. The author’s meticulous attention to detail makes you feel like you’re there witnessing the crime scene and solving the case! highly recommend
