Standalone Mysteries Collection at Denver Public Library

Denver Public Library staff have chosen 76 books to be included on our Standalone Mysteries Core Collection list. Standalone Mysteries are mystery books that are not part of a continuing series. You don't need to worry about reading these books in any particular order or getting stuck reading a very long series. During our selection process for this core collection, we tried to include titles to appeal to the whole spectrum of mystery fans.
