Can you recommend any from the top ten true crime novels?

Definitely. 'The Stranger Beside Me' is highly recommended. Ann Rule's personal knowledge of Ted Bundy adds a unique perspective. Also, 'The Devil in the White City' is excellent. It weaves together the story of the Chicago World's Fair and a serial killer's activities in a really engaging way. There's also 'I'll Be Gone in the Dark' which is important as it played a role in the search for the Golden State Killer.

Sure. 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' by Stieg Larsson is a great pick. It has a strong female lead, Lisbeth Salander, who is a computer hacker. The story involves a complex mystery of a long - lost family member and a web of corporate and personal secrets.

Sure. 'The Postman Always Rings Twice' is a classic among American crime novels. It has a very engaging and somewhat dark story.

I'd recommend 'From Hell'. It's a dark and detailed exploration of the Jack the Ripper murders. The graphic novel goes deep into the possible motives and the social context of that time. It's not for the faint - hearted, but it's a really in - depth look at a famous crime case.

Another great one is 'Helter Skelter' which tells the story of the Manson Family murders. And 'The Devil in the White City' by Erik Larson, which combines the story of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair with a serial killer's spree.

Yes, 'The Institute' is worth checking out. It has a unique take on crime and mystery, set in an institute with a lot of secrets and strange happenings. The characters are well - developed and the story keeps you on the edge of your seat as you try to figure out what's really going on within the institute and who is behind the various strange events that seem to be related to some form of crime or unethical behavior.

Sure, 'The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' by Arthur Conan Doyle is a great start. The short stories are easy to follow and introduce you to the brilliant detective Sherlock Holmes and his deductive reasoning.
