Just want to reiterate that we rarely see detective characters in films and TV shows who are sweet and kind to the people that they are helping and not just hardboiled jerks who desperately need therapy and that鈥檚 part of the reason why Benoit Blanc is so great in Knives Out. pic.twitter.com/fXJEdGD6DJI, too, love friendly and likable detectives! #MSWL

In crime fiction I'm still on the hunt for a great new regional British crime series. I love atmospheric, character driven, rich crime stories like Tana French. I love modern twists on classic detective fiction. I like locked room mysteries and cosy crime villages.

Ugh. Down with a nasty cold. Should I binge Shetland or Death in Paradise while I leak out of every hole in my face? pic.twitter.com/rPmNaGOgOhOn that note, send me all the atmospheric setting detective stories you got #MSWL (to be read when I stop said leaking).

Let's start off this Monday with a #MSWL! Liza is craving a novel set in India; whether it be a sweeping romance, a brutal crime saga, a funny detective story, or an armchair traveller's journey.

#A6 I鈥檇 love to find an exciting MG mystery/detective story, especially if it鈥檚 funny too! I鈥檓 also always on the lookout for great YA with an unreliable narrator or an intense and overwhelming love story. #SCBWIchat #mswl

Sara Schonfeld @SaraSchon
The pitch: a modern day ghost-hunter, but instead of locating spirits, they're a detective who tracks down exes who have cut off communication.This is a genuine--and impossible IRL--dream job, so I'd at least like to rep a book about it. #MSWL
