Latest Crime Books You'll Want on Your Reading List
Every crime reader has their own idea of the perfect mystery. You might enjoy piecing together intricate clues alongside a sharp detective, solving the locked-room mystery, or prefer the tension of a psychological thriller, or read crime stories packed with unexpected twists that keep you guessing until the final page. Whatever your reading style, our upcoming collection is designed to help you discover titles that deserve a place on your bookshelf. Whether you're planning your own reading list for the months ahead or searching for the perfect gift for a fellow crime fiction fan, you can easily discover what's on the horizon.
Check back here often to stay up to date with the new crime books as they're announced.
Q: Is pre-ordering the latest crime books worth it?
A: If you’re the type of reader who always has a book waiting by the sofa, then pre-ordering is a great way to keep that reading habit going. It takes away the need to keep checking when a favourite author’s next release is coming out and means your next crime fix is already sorted before it even hits the shelves. In addition, it helps the publishers estimate demand, and it assists independent bookshops in ordering the right amount of books.
Q: What makes a crime book impossible to put down?
A: That’s the mystery every author tries to solve! For many readers, it’s a combination of unforgettable characters, clever plotting and that one question that keeps you saying, “just one more chapter.”
Q: Will these books arrive on release day?
A: We always aim to get pre-ordered books to readers as quickly as possible once they are released. Release dates are set by publishers, so occasionally timings can change, but we’ll keep everything moving so you can get stuck into your next mystery as soon as possible. Some books may even arrive earlier than the publication date!
Q: How do you choose which books make it into the collection?
A: The Gumshoe Books catalogue is curated. We are big fans of crime novels ourselves and choose books that we think crime readers will genuinely enjoy, from exciting debuts to highly anticipated releases from authors who continue to keep readers turning pages late into the night.
