OK...lately I've been on a kick...let's call it historical-thriller-suspense novels. I have recently read and finished:
-Rebecca
-The Thirteenth Tale
-As Meat Loves Salt (not a thriller, but it's the atmosphere I'm looking for)
-The Meaning of Night
-Sings the Nightbird
-The Queen of Bedlam
-am currently reading Fingersmith
Now, I need recommendations, please, in this same vein. I am loving the 16th/17th century, and the suspense. I don't mind the love stories, but I don't want just straight romance. It's not my thing. I want the dark, brooding, London-y historical thriller. Look at the list above: if these books had love-children, what would they be? Ideas? Thanks.
