What are some good new mystery novels to read?

One good new mystery novel is 'The Silent Patient' by Alex Michaelides. It has a really engaging plot with a lot of twists.

I would recommend 'Where the Crawdads Sing'. It's a mystery that combines nature and human relationships. The mystery of what happened in the marsh and the main character's story is both heart - wrenching and full of suspense.

Some excellent ancient mystery novels include 'Le Morte d'Arthur' by Sir Thomas Malory. It contains elements of mystery within the Arthurian legends, like the mystery of the Holy Grail. 'The Decameron' by Giovanni Boccaccio also has some mystery - laden tales. And 'The Canterbury Tales' by Geoffrey Chaucer has stories with elements of mystery, such as the Pardoner's Tale which has an air of mystery about the motives of the characters.

I really like 'Gone Girl' by Gillian Flynn. It's a modern mystery that delves deep into the relationship between the two main characters while also presenting a gripping mystery. The plot is full of surprises and the characters are well - developed.

I would recommend 'Gone Girl' by Gillian Flynn. This novel delves deep into the dark side of a marriage. The characters are full of secrets and the plot is full of unexpected revelations. It's a real page - turner that makes you question everything you think you know about the relationship between the two main characters.

One great fantasy mystery novel is 'The Name of the Wind' by Patrick Rothfuss. It has elements of mystery as Kvothe's past is slowly unveiled. Another is 'Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell' by Susanna Clarke. It combines the world of magic and mystery in 19th - century England. Also, 'The Golem and the Jinni' by Helene Wecker is a great pick, with a unique blend of fantasy creatures and a mystery - filled plot.

One great novel mystery is 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' by Stieg Larsson. It has a complex plot full of mystery and intrigue.

Agatha Christie's 'Murder on the Orient Express' is a classic. It features the brilliant detective Hercule Poirot solving a murder on a train, with a large cast of suspects and a very clever solution. The way Christie builds the mystery and gradually reveals the secrets is masterful.

Good new mystery novels often have complex characters. For example, in 'The Silent Patient', the main character has a lot of depth which adds to the mystery. They also usually have a unique setting. 'The Woman in the Window' is set in a claustrophobic urban environment which heightens the sense of mystery. And most importantly, a good mystery novel has a plot full of twists and turns that keep the reader hooked from start to finish.

There's a new mystery series called 'Locke and Key'. It involves a family who moves into a mysterious house filled with magical keys. Each key unlocks different secrets and powers, and there are many mysteries to solve within the house and the family's past.
