Try Ian Rankin. Police procedural/mysteries set in Edinburgh, with one consistent detective (John Rebus) who's very interesting. Start with the beginning novels, which are a ways back. Not sure of the first one -- maybe Knots and Crosses or Hide and Seek, around there.
I love the Rebus on BBC America. I've only seen episodes with John Hannah as Rebus.

Can you tell I watch too much tv?
