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.

the chef Anthony Bourdain has written 2 or 3 crime novels. they are "hip" crime novels like his whole act (that said i liked the books). Elmore Leonard (Get Shorty etc.) is also good, a bit formula, but aren't all these guys a bit formula?
also Vito- the gay Soprano captain- (joseph Gannascoli) wrote a mafia crime novel set at a dinner party- "A Meal to Die For." good airplane material.
