New Zealand LISTENER Best Crime/Thriller Novels of 2024

DP contributor Craig Sisterson has provided a list of Best Crime and Thriller Novels of 2024 from a noted publication published in his native land, New Zealand. The books in bold have been reviewed in Deadly Pleasures Mystery Magazine. I especially liked THE CALL by Gavin Strawhan. We, in the U.S., should be paying more attention to the great crime fiction coming out of New Zealand and Australia – hence our focus on it in the magazine. Thanks, Craig.
