I read another you recommended, the rifleman, on another thread a few years back, fantastic book, I'll try the downfall too.

Glad you liked it

Another I enjoyed is ' the man who broke into Auschwitz' . Although there has been some speculation recently about how true his account is. Still a good read though!

Also, if your into John Grisham, have you read the painted house? I read it six years ago and still think about it from time to time!

 

Just finished this.

Brilliant.

just finished I am pilgrim by terry hayes, excellent and inciteful crime thriller written by someone who obviously knows his stuff

I loved trail of the dead Mark, you mentioned it a few years back and I really enjoyed it. A few linwood Barclay books are good. I am reading a Nordic crime thriller at the moment called the keeper of lost causes which is looking good so far.

Can't find this on iBooks Hodge, who's the author?

Can anyone else recommend any Scandinavian crime reads?

I'm hooked after the Millenium trilogy.
