Choices, Choices

I’m starting to put together my top-10 list of mysteries and thrillers published in the United States this year, and as a new member of this ace blogging team I thought I’d ask for help and comments.

Here’s my list so far--too long, and in no particular order:

• The Last Spymaster, by Gayle Lynds (St. Martin’s Press)
• A Corpse in the Koryo, by James Church (Thomas Dunne/St. Martin’s Minotaur)
• Gentlemen & Players, by Joanne Harris (William Morrow)
• Memory Book, by Howard Engel (Carroll & Graf)
• Sorrow’s Anthem, by Michael Koryta (Thomas Dunne/St. Martin's Minotaur)
• The Fallen, by T. Jefferson Parker (William Morrow)
• Red Sky Lament, by Edward Wright (Orion)
• Islandbridge, by John Brady (McArthur & Co.)
• Play to the End, Robert Goddard (Delta)
• The Foreign Correspondent, by Alan Furst (Random House)
• Carte Blanche, by Carlo Lucarelli; translated by Michael Reynolds (Europa)
• Winter’s Bone, by Daniel Woodrell (Little, Brown)
• Messenger of Truth, by Jacqueline Winspear (Holt)
• Liberation Movements, by Olen Steinhauer (St. Martin’s Minotaur)
• The Boy Detective Fails, by Joe Meno (Punk Planet/Akashic)
• Death of a Writer, by Michael Collins (Bloomsbury)
• The One from the Other, by Philip Kerr (Miriam Wood/Putnam)

What have I missed?
