Can you recommend the best French thriller novels?

One of the best is 'The Perfume' by Patrick Süskind. It's a dark and atmospheric thriller set in 18th - century France. Another great one is 'Tell No One' by Harlan Coben. Although Coben is American, the French - set story is full of twists and turns. Also, 'I'm the King of the Castle' by Susan Hill has a French - like, brooding atmosphere that makes it a great thriller.

Yes. 'Silence of the Lambs' is a classic thriller novel. It's so chilling with the character of Hannibal Lecter. The cat - and - mouse game between Clarice Starling and Lecter is extremely engaging. And 'The Da Vinci Code' by Dan Brown is also very popular. It's filled with mystery, conspiracy, and a race against time to uncover secrets.

Sure. 'My Sister, the Serial Killer' by Oyinkan Braithwaite. It's a unique thriller that explores the complex relationship between two sisters, one of whom may be a serial killer. The Nigerian setting and cultural elements add an extra layer of intrigue.

Sure. 'The Shining' by Stephen King is a top - notch suspense thriller. The isolated setting of the Overlook Hotel and the slow descent into madness of the main character are really spooky. It's a great read for those who like a touch of horror in their suspense.

Another good one is 'The Woman in White' by Wilkie Collins. It has a great plot with lots of suspense. And 'And Then There Were None' by Agatha Christie is a classic thriller with a simple yet engaging mystery.

I also like 'Kafka on the Shore' by Haruki Murakami. While it's not a traditional thriller in the pure sense, it has elements of mystery and the surreal. The journey of the two main characters, Kafka Tamura and Nakata, is filled with strange events and unexplained phenomena. It's a mind - bending read that keeps you guessing throughout.

It plays on the idea of perfect suburban life with a very dark and scary twist. 'The Andromeda Strain' by Michael Crichton is a thriller that combines science and horror in a great way.

Sure. 'Micro' by Michael Crichton is a great one. It's about a group of people who are shrunk to microscopic size and have to survive in a dangerous world that is now full of threats they never imagined. Another good choice is 'Sphere' which is also by Crichton. It involves a discovery of an alien spacecraft at the bottom of the ocean and the strange and terrifying things that start to happen to the scientists who investigate it.

Sure. 'The Silent Patient' is a great 2019 thriller. It has a really interesting psychological aspect to it. Then there's 'The Institute' which is a thrilling read by Stephen King. Also, 'The Whisper Man' is quite good.
