All Them Dogs by Djamel White

A West Dublin enforcer comes home with a killing behind him and falls for the man he takes his orders from. Djamel White's debut is the loudest, funniest and most frightening book on the Booker Prize 2026 longlist, and the tenderness in it is what does the damage.

Miss Marple is watched for four hundred pages and never once given the microphone, and that decision turns an authorised Christie continuation into something genuinely strange.
