Plum Island, or the Lion's Game by Nelson DeMille.

The Bourne Identity by Robert Ludlum. It's old, but it's a classic for a reason.

Relic or Riptide by Preston & Childs. Not perfect, but quite fun to read.

The DaVinci Code is a load of steaming doody. Even for an author as mediocre as Dan Brown, it was BAD. Stay away from that one. Interesting concept, really crappy writing.

Watchers by Dean Koontz is a kind of supernatural thriller, not really horror. I found it pretty entertaining.

Good luck and happy reading.

Well, I don't have a thriller for you, but I can recommend any Fannie Flagg book for a little bit of humor and an ongoing drama. I am currently reading Standing in the Rainbow. The book is huge, but the chapters are short so if you only have a moment or two to read, you can do so. Also, I recently read The Grapes of Wrath. It starts off kind of slow, but picks up rather quickly. It describes the times during the Depression. Interesting.

King Fortis the Brave is more of a fantasy/adventure book than a thriller, but you'll find it almost impossible to put down

You may have already read it but "A Brave New World" is a great book if you can get past all the sci-fi stuff and recognize the message. It has really made me re-think a lot of things about my life.
