SylviaRosemond Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 I LOVE spy thrillers and well written psychogical thrillers are slowly growing on me. I'm compiling a list of books for my winter reading. Here is what I have so far: A Death In Sweden The Girl in the Glass: A McCabe and Savage Thriller Runner (Sam Dryden #1) If you recommend psychogical thrillers, I them to be dark and maybe the main character questions reality? Think Mr. Robot without the computer hacker part. For spy thrillers, I don't want post 9/11 thrillers. To be honest, it's becoming repetitive. I don't mind thrillers that are post Snowden, but they have to be well researched and written, I don't want authors that think computers can hack into things within a matter of minutes, and have computers be unrealistic.

Onion Budgie Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Have you read 'My Name is N' by Robert Karjel? (It has the alternative title of 'The Swede'.) I read it earlier this year, and rather enjoyed it. It has a nice, twisty ending. It was my first ever thriller, though, so I have nothing to compare it with! Quote

Has good reviews on Amazon. I shall add it to my list. Quote
Nollaig Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Maybe something by Helen Fitzgerald? The Exit and The Devils Staircase are both quite dark. Quote

bobblybear Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 How about I Am Pilgrim by Terry Hayes? That's a pretty decent spy thriller. It is post 9/11, but only mentioned in the periphery (if I recall correctly). Quote
