The most popular French crime & mystery books

Crime and mystery books start with a crime or a puzzle and follow the effort to solve it. You read alongside detectives, amateurs and sometimes the culprits themselves, weighing clues and suspects until the truth comes out. The genre runs from gentle village mysteries to hard-edged police procedurals and noir. Only books in French are listed.
