Can anyone recommend an excellent suspense novel that isn't about gore?

Dan Brown’s “The Da Vinci Code” and/or “Angels and Daemons” are pretty suspenseful and not particularly gory.

The Joel Rosenberg series of books is superb, particularly “Dead Heat”

My wife loved The Hunger Games series.

Many of Michael Chrichton’s books are in that category, suspenseful but not gory:
The Andromeda Strain
Airframe
Twister
etc…

Maybe some Robert Ludlum?

Rita Mae Brown

Not gory and the animals talk to each other, but not to their humans.

Two different “series” one with fox hunting horses and the other with just cats, dogs, etc. and the main character is Harry, hubby is Fair.

Murder mystery, not at all gory.

Ken Follett

@SuperMouse . . . I love Ludlum.

I also loved and recommend The Hunger Games.

Older era: Alistair MacClean wrote suspense novels. Any spy book can be suspense, and thriller is the other term to hunt under. Did you check with your local librarian? Sometimes they will be shelved under Mystery, most of the time under General Fiction. Some Dick Francis are suspense rather than mystery. Stanley Ellin, Leslie Charteris, Agatha Christie, Dale Brown and Dan Brown, Tom Clancy, all the these have some suspense. Some are good, some not as.

Care for a really neat suspenseful ghost story? Try The Ridge by Koryta. : )
