The generous folks at Penguin get in touch to offer five free copies of Nicci French’s
COMPLICIT, the latest novel from best-selling writing partnership Nicci Gerrard and Sean French, and which is released in paperback on March 17. First, the blurb elves:
Who is more deadly? An enemy? A friend? Or a lover? Bonnie Graham is in her friend’s flat. She is alone, except for the dead body lying in a pool of blood. What happened? What will she do? And is any or all of it her fault? Bonnie is a music teacher who has spent a long, hot summer in London rehearsing with a band. It was supposed to be fun, but the tricky knots of the band’s friendships unravel with each passing day. What was meant to be a summer of happiness, music and love turns deadly as lovers betray, passions turn homicidal and friendship itself becomes a crime. Someone in the band must be a killer. Is it Bonnie? And if not – who is it?
Sounds like a belter. To be in with a chance of winning a copy,

Michael Stanley (Michael Sears and Stanlet Trollip) and the book would be Famous Dubliners

Maj Sjowall and Per Wahloo - the Martin Beck series. Any will do but Roseanna is the first.
Don't send me Complicit though as I've already read it (and reviewed it for Euro Crime)! I hope whoever is lucky enough to win it enjoys it.
P.J.Tracy (mother and daughter P.J and Traci Lambrecht) - Want to Play (and others in series).

Anders roslund and Borge Hellstrom - Three Seconds. I'm reading this now and loving it.

Fortunately my current ban on buying books doesn´t say a word about winning them ;D
Alexander and Alexandra Ahndoril - the Swedish couple behind the pen name "Lars Kepler", "The Hypnotist" - fast-paced thriller on its way to English readers righ now.

Maj Sjowall and Per Wahloo - all their books are great but I recommend The Laughing Policeman for the great last line.
PJ Parrish is two sisters Kristy Montee and Kelly Nichols - The Little Death was good solid read with a somewhat shocking ending.

Raymond E Feist and Janny Wurts was the first example of a writing partnership that I came across many years ago.
I loved the Midkemia books - Daughter of the Empire included.

Dick Francis and Felix Francis, "Dead Heat" -- a very nice torch-passing from father to son
rick at ollerman dot com
A Lonely Death by Charles Todd, a mother and son writing team (Caroline and Charles Todd)
I can only think of the greats Maj Sjowall and Per Wahloo, as others have mentioned.
Am reading "The Fire Engine that Disappeared," and finding it perfection--if a book can be characterized that way.
I will be sad to turn the last page soon.

I missed the deadline (bit of stomach distress that doesn't need explaining) but I don't want to pass up adding a collaboration that I discovered thanks to Declan — Ellis O'Hanlon and Ian McConnel writing as Ingrid Black. I've enjoyed the three I've read in the Saxon series. The first I read was Judas Heart which is third in the series and I certainly recommend it. Or you can start with the first which is The Dead.
