While we wait for New York Times critics to issue their lists of favorite crime, mystery, and thriller novels published over the last dozen months (their 2024 picks were released after December 1), we at least can take in that newspaper’s “100 Notable Books of 2025” feature. A few works from this genre won mention on it, among them:
• The Doorman, by Chris Pavone (MCD)
• The Feeling of Iron, by Giaime Alonge (Europa Editions)
• The Good Liar, by Denise Mina (Mulholland)
• Heartwood, by Amity Gaige (Simon & Schuster)
• Hollow Spaces, by Victor Suthammanont (Counterpoint)
• Shadow Ticket, by Thomas Pynchon (Penguin Press)
• Venetian Vespers, by John Banville (Knopf)
• Victorian Psycho, by Virginia Feito (Liveright)
Meanwhile, Deadly Pleasures Mystery Magazine brings us other top choices from National Public Radio, The New Zealand Listener, India’s English-language Times Now TV channel, and elsewhere.
