The In Crowd
by Charlotte Vassell
☆ Shortlisted for the 2025 Edgar Allan Poe Awards
The In Crowd by Charlotte Vassell is the second book set in high society London and featuring Detective Inspector Caius Beauchamp. The Other Half is the first, and may be worth reading first because while two cases are investigated in The In Crowd, a lot of the book's energy comes from the characters. These include a beautiful milliner, Calliope Foster, as the love interest.

The Best Mystery Books of 2025
Welcome to our running list of the best mystery books of 2025, which we’ll be updating throughout the year. First up is the shortlist of the 2025 Edgar Allan Poe Award for best novel, the most prestigious U.S. mystery book prize. Bear in mind that these are books from the previous year (rather than the very latest) with the advantage that they’re already likely to be in paperback or will be soon.
