I haven't read it yet, but 'Firekeeper's Daughter' by Angeline Boulley is often described as a thriller. The protagonist, Daunis, is pulled into an FBI investigation on her Ojibwe reservation. From what I hear, her struggle to navigate her community and the investigation, and who she can trust, seems to deeply explore themes of family—both born and chosen.
Can we talk about platonic found families? So much YA focuses on romance, but the deep, loyal friendships in these detective stories are everything. The partner who has your back, the tech whiz, the muscle, the one who notices the emotional clue—that's the core relationship for me.
I feel like the 'found family within detective groups' is just a perfect recipe for character-driven plots. The mystery gives them a goal, and the process of solving it reveals their personalities, builds trust, and creates inside jokes. It's why those series are so addictive—you come back for the next case, but you stay for the crew's dynamic.
'A Lesson in Vengeance' by Victoria Lee is a dark academic thriller about a girl returning to the boarding school where her girlfriend died. She's drawn into a circle of eccentric girls obsessed with witchcraft and historical murders. They become her twisted, glamorous family as she investigates the past, blurring the lines between reality and obsession.
Anyone else feel like Veronica Mars is the queen of this, even though it started as a TV show? The books continue the story, and her team—Wallace, Mac, even her dad—is the ultimate detective found family. They operate out of the Neptune PI office, taking on cases no one else will, bound by a shared sense of justice and snark.

Book 1 Saints and Sinners
She was the light to my dark.
The saint to my sinner. with her innocent eyes and devilish curves.
A Madonna that was meant to be admired but never touched.
Until someone took that innocence from her.
She left.
The darkness in my heart was finally complete.
I avenged her, I killed for her, but she never came back.
Until I saw her again. An angel dancing around a pole for money.
She didn’t know I owned that club. She didn’t know I was watching.
This time I won’t let her escape.
I will make her back into the girl I knew.
Whether she likes it or not.
Book 2 Judge and Jury
I can’t stop watching her.
I’m not even sure I want to.
Taylor Lawson, blonde, beautiful, and totally oblivious to how much dangers she’s in.
She’s also the one juror in my upcoming murder trial that hasn’t been bought.
The one who can put me behind bars for a very long time.
I know I should execute her.
After all that’s what I do.
I am the Judge.
I eliminate threats to The Family.
And Taylor is a threat.
But I don’t want to kill her.
Possessing her, making her love me seems like a much better plan for this particular Juror.
My mom calls me on Friday.
"Don't forget about tomorrow's family dinner. Cody loves shrimps, so you should buy more of those at the seafood market in the southern district.
"Lexi loves lamb chops. Go take a look in the eastern district for them. Also, don't forget to buy the imported strawberries. Noah loves them a lot."
I say yes to each and every request Mom makes.
But as soon as I end the call, I receive a text on the family group chat.
"I've already given Eileen a list of our favorite foods. It's tough for you to earn money these days, so you shouldn't buy anything."
One second later, that message is deleted.
Still, I'm flabbergasted by what I just read.
I've been married for two years. Every Saturday throughout those years, I'm the one paying and organizing the family dinner of the week.
I thought there's no need to be so petty when it comes to family. But it seems that they've already viewed me as the outsider a long time ago.
In that case, I won't be attending the family dinner anymore.
