Recs if you like The Snowman (Harry Hole, #7)...

Books that were adapted into movies (not tv shows). Let's make this list as long as possible!

(going to only add the first book in a series)

I couldn’t find one and I wanted one. So now I am making one. A new crime adventure, as I have read exactly zero of these on creation of this list.

Ethical murder solving from your couch without joining your local police department.

Mystery novels (and maybe a few thrillers) that have a theme of Christmas or other winter holidays, or an overall wintery theme. Please give suggestions!

Wintery Weather Thrillers! Suspense for a Snowy Day!

A list to help those who aspire to read from authors outside the typical areas. I will be creating different list for different regions. I will also list the countries currently found in the list. Be sure to check out the other lists! Note: The countries are not perfect as some countries are classified differently, so I did my best.

Current Countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, The Netherlands, Norway, Scotland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Wales

Books with winter, snowy, or frozen settings. Usually suspenseful, thriller, or horror. The weather or temperature as a secondary character.
