I absolutely love these kinds of books. I read alot of John Lescroart books and they are just amazing. I can never put the book down but Ive read pretty much every book he put out. I need to find some new authors just as good.

Authors:
Jeffrey Deaver
Carol O'Connell - incredible characters, one of my all-time favorites
Michael Connelly
Ruth Rendell
Minette Walters
J.D. Robb (although you get a bit sick of the characters after a while, she writes very convincing romance)

A really good murder mystery and that is true is the story of Henry Holmes in Chicago during the 1980s. There might be a novel about this person, but if you can't locate a books on him, you can definitely find a true story about his life. He lived and worked in a place called Murder Castle, of which was his own creation.

A kiss before dying by Ira Levin. There is a film based on that book with the actress Sean Young.

I would recommend Jeffrey Deaver, which is murder mystery plus forensics (think Bone Collector.)
Also, Michael Connelly, which is murder mystery plus police detectives in LA (such as Blood Work.)

"The Dante Club" (Matthew Pearl) I guess. It kind of dragged though.
