We meet nice and friendly Joe, a forty-two-year-old psychiatrist who appears to be living the life. We’ll kick things off with the first book, Suspect. The main characters in this series are Joseph O’Loughlin, a benevolent psychiatrist with family troubles, and Vincent Ruiz, a tough homicide detective who likes to drink a little too much. I am going to start this article off with one of the best book series by Michael Robotham, which contains his debut novel. He wrote his first psychological thriller, Suspect, and never looked back. In 2002, he decided that he would rather write best-selling books with “Michael Robotham” as the author, and so it began. He collaborated with all kinds of folk (popstars, psychologists, adventurers, etc.) and helped them write their autobiographies. In 1993, Robotham decided to quit journalism and become a ghost-writer. Starting off as a cadet journalist at a Sydney newspaper, Robotham then spent the next fourteen years writing for newspapers and magazines in Australia, America and the UK. He went and got all the experience he could before he branched out and became a writer. Robotham’s writing history is about a mile long. I mean, if that doesn’t convince you that he knows his way around a murder mystery, then I don’t know what will. His books have been translated into 25 languages and published in over 50 countries! Michael Robotham’s best novels have gotten him on the short-list for an Edgar Award (twice), but also made him a two-time Gold Dagger winner. I call Robotham an ‘international’ crime writer because he truly is one.

That is what this article is all about! Me telling you about the seven best Michael Robotham books that you will be dying to read when I am done. I’d be surprised if you have never read at least one of his books, but that also means that I get to entice you into reading his novels. Calling all lovers of crime fiction and psychological thrillers! I am about to introduce you to someone whose books you will definitely want to read: Michael Robotham.
