Asteroid Lil - Offstage Presence

Police procedurals of excellent literary quality: read Reginald Hill's Dalziel/Pascoe novels. Among my reading crowd we think the book "Pictures of Perfection" is superb.

And to think I created this thread in an attempt to keep track of books already suggested to, not to get more suggestions! smiley - rofl

Thanks all, I'll check which ones I can get my hands on (have limited myself to buying books 'live' and by no means online since I'd end up with more books than I have space for).

My personal crime favourites at this time are probably Jeffery Deaver and the Scandinavians Stieg Larsson (no more from him, though) and Jo Nesbø.
