Imagine an industry that sells over three billion products a year across the world. This is not an electronic gadget or a knife that can cut through a soda can, but rather a publishing genre known as the thriller. I am a thriller and crime fiction junkie. I've been addicted to these books for years, and my habit keeps growing, so it's not unusual for me to be reading a few of them concurrently. The authors who write in these genres seem to churn them out on a yearly basis. The one common element among all these books is that they hold more testosterone than Gold's Gym. However, many thriller readers are women and so are many bestselling authors of these books. Their female protagonists are revered by millions of readers, both men and women alike. My mother used to call these books beach reads but they're good anywhere.
The following is a list of my five favorite female authors from the crime fiction and thriller genres.

not only do ilike the '' heroin ''a lot but also the ways the story toches on so many issues.
he's a man but really good at writing woman.
I love Kinsey Milhone. Her last book was especially good. She seldom ever let's her fans down.
I have a little peeve I must admit to. I have tremendous respect for older people and would never call them "old people." They are older people, or elderly if I must mention age:-) I was raised this way. I might be derogatory if it were someone I truly didn't repect but otherwise P. D. James and others like her have my admiration for still be fruitful and busy in their golden years. By the way, Rendell is James' best friend. And wouldn't you love to be honored to join in a conversation with them sometime?
Someone gets burned.
