Best Thrillers 2022

THE SURVIVOR, Simon Conway
SLEEP WHEN YOU’RE DEAD, Jude O’Reilly
QUEEN HIGH, C. J. Carey
SEVENTEEN, John Brownlow
A TRAITOR’S HEART, Ben Creed

Comment: I recently read and greatly enjoyed SEVENTEEN by John Brownlow. Great action and plotting. It’s on my Best of 2022 list. I’ve ordered a copy of QUEEN HIGH, which is written by Philip Kerr’s widow. It is an alternative history series set in Nazi-controlled England in the 1950s.
