Mystery Bestsellers for January 02, 2009

A list of the top 15 mystery hardcover bestsellers for the week ending January 02, 2009 has been posted on the Hidden Staircase Mystery Books website.

A quiet final week for mystery bestsellers with only a minor shuffling of the top four. James Patterson's latest Alex Cross thriller, Cross Country, retakes the top spot by a slim margin followed by Scarpetta by Patricia Cornwell, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson, and The Private Patient (Adam Dalgliesch) by P. D. James.

That should all change next week with the publication of the new between-the-numbers Stephanie Plum mystery, Plum Spooky by Janet Evanovich, scheduled to go on sale January 6th.

On our bestseller page, we've added an icon next to every title that is available for immediate download onto the Amazon Kindle. To learn about this wireless reading device, visit the Amazon Kindle page for more information.
