Jonathan Kellerman has Alex Delaware novels, and Faye Kellerman has Peter Decker/Rena Lazarus novels. Patricia Cornwell has Kay Scarpetta novels. Anything by Dean Koontz....

Jonathan Kellerman is good, and Robert B. Parker, who writes the Spenser novels, also puts a lot on humor into his stories. John Grisham remains top notch.

Agatha Christie is one of the most renowned authors of all time for mystery stories, and she is the all-time best selling author of mysteries. They are mostly plays, but many have been transcribed into books. In Wikipedia, they have a list of her works if you keyword her name.

Jeffery Deaver's Lincoln Rhyme series are good.

James Patterson is extremely popular, quite a few movies are based off his books.
