My favorite after Hiaasen is Robert Parker. He's been writing Spenser for over 20 years and he's done a great job of keeping the characters fresh, developing them with a sense of growth and a rare nuance.

Thanks. I was trying to keep my post less than book-length but I probably should have noted that I've read all of the Spenser novels and all of Ann Rule's true-crime books (I tried reading her one novel but it sucked). I've also read all of Robert Barnard's novels, and i love his stuff.
I will look into John Sandford. I haven't had a luck with Hiaasen books in the past.
