The New York Times has chosen the following novels that some consider mystery/crime fiction.
In early December I expect that Sarah Weinman (best mysteries) and Sarah Lyall (best thrillers) will also provide us with their “best” lists.

ALL THE SINNERS BLEED, S. A. Cosby
BIRNAM WOOD, Eleanor Catton
BRIGHT YOUNG WOMEN, Jessica Knoll
CROOK MANIFESTO, Colson Whitehead
HOLLY, Stephen King
THE REFORMATORY, Tananarive Due
YELLOWFACE, R. F. Kuang
THE HEAVEN & EARTH GROCERY STORE, James McBride
