For their top crime and thriller books of 2023, Richard Osman’s The Last Devil to Die gets a special mention: “Spearheaded by the bestselling phenomenon that is Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club series (whose latest instalment is featured below), the genteel locations of 'cosy crime' have become enormously popular.”
