Okay, so the 2022 suspense list? I genuinely think 'The Maid' by Nita Prose got too much hype for its quirkiness and the actual suspense felt secondary. My pick is 'The Paris Apartment' by Lucy Foley. Foley’s strength is that locked-room, multi-perspective dread, and this one uses a strange Parisian building with awful neighbors so effectively. The pacing is relentless.

For something less trope-y, 'The Cartographers' by Peng Shepherd blends map obsession with a murder mystery and this surreal, almost magical realism threat. The suspense comes from uncovering a hidden world, not a chasing a killer. It’s a slower, more atmospheric unease that really got under my skin.

I’d skip the big-name thrillers that year; they felt formulaic. 'The Family Remains' was a fine sequel but didn’t match the original’s tension. The ones playing with structure or a weird central concept delivered the proper gut-punch surprises I crave.

This might be a niche take, but for suspense lovers who want more than just a thriller, 'The Cloisters' by Katy Hays was a standout. It’s set in a museum of medieval art, following a summer intern getting tangled in academic obsession and occult rumors about fortune-telling tarot. The suspense is quiet, intellectual, and incredibly sinister—it builds through research, hidden symbols, and the chilling politics of a tiny, isolated workplace. It’s not about car chases; it’s about the dread of realizing the person you work beside might believe in something dangerous enough to kill for. The historical mystery layer makes the tension feel heavy and unique.

My vote goes to 'The It Girl' by Ruth Ware. Her prose has this smooth, addictive quality that makes the pages vanish. The story hops between past and present, unraveling who really killed a college roommate. The setting—Oxford university—adds this pressure-cooker intensity. Ware is so good at making you doubt every character, including the narrator. It’s a pure, classic suspense mechanism executed perfectly.

I spent most of 2022 chasing that 'can't put it down' feeling, and two books absolutely wrecked my sleep schedule. 'Run Time' by Catherine Ryan Howard is a masterclass in meta-suspense—an actress filming a horror movie in the Irish woods starts losing track of what's script and what's real threat. The format itself, with script pages intercut, builds this incredible paranoia. Then there's 'Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six' by Lisa Unger, which is exactly what it sounds like but executed with such vicious precision. It takes that classic 'rich friends on a doomed trip' setup and weaponizes modern tech anxiety and old secrets. Both had me checking the locks.

Which 2022 thriller novels deliver the most intense suspense?

I'm gonna have to champion 'The Violin Conspiracy' by Brendan Slocumb here, which might not be a traditional thriller but the suspense is absolutely riveting. It follows a Black classical musician whose family heirloom violin is stolen right before a major competition. The tension comes from multiple fronts: the high-stakes race to recover it, the cutthroat world of classical music, and the deep dive into systemic prejudice. You're on edge the whole time, not just about the mystery, but about whether the protagonist will ever get the fair shot he deserves in a biased industry.

Man, 2022 had some absolute bangers for plot-driven fiction. A lot of buzz rightly went to Hernan Diaz’s 'Trust'—it’s this layered, puzzle-box narrative about wealth and deception that totally rewires itself as you read. I was flipping pages trying to figure out what was real. Then there’s 'The Rabbit Hutch' by Tess Gunty. It’s less a traditional thriller and more a deep, interconnected character study in a crumbling apartment building, but the tension comes from waiting for these disparate lives to violently intersect. The plot coils tighter with every perspective shift. For sheer, can’t-put-it-down propulsion, 'Lessons in Chemistry' by Bonnie Garmus isn’t just a charming period piece. The way it frames a female scientist’s fight in the 1960s as a kind of intellectual heist story, complete with a mysterious past and a dog with a POV, is way more gripping than the cover suggests. I’d also slot in 'Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow' by Gabrielle Zevin. Calling it a book about video games undersells it; it’s a decades-long saga of friendship and creative partnership that plays out like the most intense, emotional level you’ve ever tried to beat.
