CrimeSquad’s Top Ten

Top Ten will soon change to our Christmas reads – yes, I did write the dreaded word! I guess we all have to face it sooner or later. I am currently compiling it and there are some great titles that any crime reader will love in their stocking!

To check out all our past reviews use the Review Archive. Search under author surname and author Christian name if you can’t recall the surname. And for good measure you can also search under the title of the book. Simply click on the box at the top of the page and then click on to the letter of the author/title you would like to find. As you will see, we have reviewed a huge number of books during Crimesquad.com’s thirteen years. Have a wander round our archives and I hope you will find something you might have missed first time around!

It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.
