Top Ten for 2007
I'll be publishing the Euro Crime reviewers' top 5 European reads of 2007, as soon as I've put the page together. In the meantime, here are my top ten reads from last year which happen to be all European. I do read mostly European books so I suppose it makes sense!

Good list,Karen. On the basis of your reviews, I can add Jungersen, Glauser and Davidsen to my wish list! (I've already read the others on your list and agree with your judgement that they are all excellent.)
I am head over heels in love with the writings of Fred Vargas, the French archaelogist. However, in 2007, I read 3 of her Inspector Adamsberg (those at the New York Public Library) and The Three Evangelists which I had to purchase
and I am not sure what was published last year. What do you think?
I am in love with Fred Vargas's writings. However, I don't know what was published in 2007 as I read 3 of her Inspector Adamsberg books (those I could find in English at the New York Library) and The Three Evangelists which I purchased, in 2007. What do you think?
Wash this Blood.. was the 2007 book which I read (early) in Dec 2006 and it didn't quite make my favourite reads of 2006. The Three Evangelists is my favourite! This Night's Foul Work is out in February.
