For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Michael Connelly's book's with Harry Bosch and Terry McCaleb are brilliant. Good one's are Blood Work, Trunk Music and The Poet.
Also, look for a guy called Lee Child. He has written a load of novels with a main character called Jack Reacher. Reacher is the coolest guy ever, ex military policeman and always manages to wind up in something without planning too. Without Fail is a recent one by Child and is brilliant.
Mo Hayder has written a couple of books based in the UK, Birdman and The Treatment. They touch on some fairly taboo subjects, but if you like a good read, then they are fantastic.
Val McDermid and Reginald Hill also base their stories in the UK, but if you want to broaden your horizons a bit, then look out for Alex Kava (three novels now and all gripping yarns), James Patterson (character Alex Cross), Kathy Reichs (character Temperance Brennan) and Patricia Cornwell (main characters Kay Scarpetta and Pete Marino) to name but a few.
And of course, there is the queen of crime, Agatha Christie!
Good Luck!
