We have similar reading tastes. If you like those authors, I would recommend Greg Iles and Lee Child. Iles is actually similar to Coben, but with a little more character description.
From Greg Iles, take a look at The Quiet Game about an attorney returning home and re-opening a case no one else would touch. The lead character in this is also featured in Iles's most recent book, Turning Angel. If you like those, try Mortal Fear, Dead Sleep and Blood Memory.
Lee Child writes books about a former military policeman Jack Reacher. Great character. Start with his latest Reacher novel, The Hard Way. If you like it, go back and read the rest.
Other authors who write great books, same genre: Jonathan Kellerman (Alex Delaware books--all fantastic, start with When the Bough Breaks), John Sandford (the Lucas Davenport novels aka the Prey books--all fantastic), Nelson DeMille.

John Sandford - Prey Series
James Patterson - Alex Cross Series or other
Try some Carl Hiassen for fun.

If you like those author's novels then you may like to try some by Iain Rankin. The books have a central character Rebus: literally an enigma worth solving. Enjoy.

You seem to like thrillers, so give these a try: James Patterson, Mo Hayder, Nicci French, Jonathan Kellerman. If you like fantasy try Terry Pratchett. If you like horror try: Anne Rice, Graham Masterton, John Saul, Jonathan Aycliffe. If you like romance books, ask someone else lol
