Looking for very detailed crime-thriller books

Christmas is coming up and my dad needs new reading material, he likes crime thrillers, I've gotten him Ken Follet in the past which my dad says is very detailed but very good so I'm thinking about trying to get him something similar.

Thanks for any suggestions!


My go to crime fiction recommendations are anything by Henning Mankell, Jo Nesbo, and Val McDermid. They all write series and standalone books so check to make sure you don’t pick one halfway through a series.

They're all excellent writers and really spill a good yarn, however all three authors can be (for me) horribly violent and descriptive about it too. I can't stomach that much gore any longer.

Hi Charles, websites which provide free pdfs of books which are still in copyright are illegal, so we don't allow links to them on the forum. You can usually get access to newer eBooks for free through your local library, or, if a book is old enough to be out of copyright, you might be able to find pdfs of them from Project Gutenberg.
