Crime Fiction & Thriller Bargain Book Box 42 (17 Books)

One small flag: Everyone Who Can Forgive Me is Dead by Jenny Hollander also appeared in Crime Fiction & Thriller Bargain Book Box 43, though the ISBN here (9781408719596) differs from that listing (9781408719572) — likely two different editions, so probably fine to run in both.
