I am about to run out of Vera Stanhope novels, and aside from reading Shetland novels, I am without hope in a bleak landscape of inferior mysteries. Have long since consumed Sayers, Penny, Le Carre, Elizabeth George. Dared to dabble in Patricia Cornwell. Gave up on Val MacDermid (which I hate to admit) because I got annoyed at her spotty - to me- character development. Any suggestions for detectives?

Yes! The Shetland novels are great, but of course there are only four of them. Beyond those:

P.D. James has gorgeous prose and I love her Inspector Dalgleish; there are 15 of those novels

Tana French, Dublin Murder Squad; the prose and the characters are absolutely great

Qiu Xiaolong, Inspector Chen Cao series (Death of a Red Heroine is the first, and it's great; the series can be harder to find than the others)

Georges Simenon, Maigret novels; these are classics for a reason, and I think they've been getting new translations, but if you're up to reading them in French, the French is great

ETA: can't believe I forgot Donna Leon's Brunetti series! Atmospheric, humane, really interesting

Rare Donna Leon L

#truth must observe that sta nell'ircana is lifted almost paro paro from ariosto #but tbh without knowing that it is indeed kinda puzzling lol #which is why its inclusion in a cd all about handel's sorceresses and the heroes abandoning them is kinda funny #since ruggiero is actually singing about how torn he is about having to leave bradamante for a sec lol #opera #handel #donna leon #la maga is indeed abbandonata😔#she is irrelevant to you i understood her perfectly #tvb donna leon si scherza
