We compiled a list of the top 12 mystery novels of 2017 and here’s what we came up! Some are set on foreign shores, a few are domestic, some thrillers add a spark, and historical also gets in the mix. The one thing in common is that these are 12 storytellers at the top of their gam
1. The Fifth Petal by Brunonia Barry (Crown)
2. Two Days Gone by Randall Silvis (Sourcebooks Landmark)
3. Follow Me Down by Sherri Smith (Forge Books)
4. Where Dead Men Meet by Mark Mills (Blackstone)
