A list of the top 15 Mystery Hardcover Bestsellers for the week ending December 6th, 2013 has been posted by the Hidden Staircase Mystery Books.
Last week's featured title, Cross My Heart by James Patterson, moves up strongly into fourth position this week, though John Grisham's legal thriller Sycamore Row remains atop the list again this week.
Two new titles debut this week (rank in [brackets]).

[10]: Command Authority
Tom Clancy with Mark Greaney
— Jack Ryan (4th)
There's a new strong man in Russia but his rise to power is based on a dark secret hidden decades in the past. The solution to that mystery lies with a most unexpected source, President Jack Ryan.

[11]: The Gods of Guilt
Michael Connelly
— Mickey Haller (5th)
Mickey Haller gets the text, "Call me ASAP - 187," and the California penal code for murder immediately gets his attention. Murder cases have the highest stakes and the biggest paydays, and they always mean Haller has to be at the top of his game.
When Mickey learns that the victim was his own former client, a prostitute he thought he had rescued and put on the straight and narrow path, he knows he is on the hook for this one. He soon finds out that she was back in LA and back in the life. Far from saving her, Mickey may have been the one who put her in danger.
Haunted by the ghosts of his past, Mickey must work tirelessly and bring all his skill to bear on a case that could mean his ultimate redemption or proof of his ultimate guilt.
