New Murder Mystery Books Available Online

By Joanna Walsh


Many authors are choosing to publish their novels online today. New murder mystery books are constantly made available to avid fans. These fans cannot wait to enjoy the latest in a particular series and are always looking out for novels written by their favorite authors.

One of the reasons this genre has such a devoted following is because of the puzzles that have to be solved. The reader is drawn in to a particular situation and is slowly fed clues as to the identity of the murderer. The best authors create a fine balance, giving the reader the satisfaction of feeling they are nearing an answer but at the same time keeping the suspense building.

The plots are incredibly varied and sometimes the reader is introduced to the murderer immediately. The suspense comes from seeing inside the mind of the murderer. Many people love psychological thrillers where they gain insight into what makes people commit heinous acts. Other fans are armchair detectives who love the intellectual challenge of following clues and trying to decipher puzzles.

The sleuths in these novels vary considerably. They are women and men, and they come in all ages, from a Miss Marple to Harry Bosch. Some of them are handsome or beautiful and many of them have complex characters. Others are irascible old men with a taste for cigarettes and whiskey but with the sharpest of minds. Aspects of their personalities and their relationships with others are explored.

Murders take place in all kinds of places. A body may be found on a deserted beach or in a railway station. Someone may be murdered in a hotel room during a convention or drowned in a lake. Sometimes they are set within a certain world such as sport, the arts or politics. The setting is important in creating the atmosphere of the story.

Once readers have bought a book from a particular website, they often sign up for an email newsletter. This helps to keep them informed about any discounts being offered, when the latest novels come out and competitions taking place. Websites also publish reviews of novels, some written by experts and others by readers themselves. These can be helpful when trying to make a selection.

What happens when a book one loves finally comes to an end? It is possible to get recommendations of novels written by the same author or others, based on what has already been read. Whether you enjoy reading old fashioned whodunits set in country villages or violent, disturbing novels set in cosmopolitan cities, there is something to suit every taste.

The best of these novels are written in such a way that the reader is kept in suspense right till the end. However, the crime must still feel solvable and the clues given have to be believable. This genre is immensely popular and new novels are being published constantly. Readers have no shortage of choice and are always able to find a book that appeals to their specific taste.
