I went through a pile of mysteries provided by one of our nurses ...

Prayers for Rain - David Lehane (pretty typical hard-boiled detective novel, with tough dames and quirky sidekicks abounding.)

Rough Justice - Lisa Scottoline (lawyer with an icky client, set in Philadelphia, so there's lots of local flavor. The author was raised on the Main Line)

Grave Secrets - Kathy Reichs (It seems that she ends her books very abruptly, almost as though she realizes she's approaching her max word count and has to wind things up too quickly, very out of balance with the pacing through the rest of the book)

Now working on Darwin's Radio by Greg Bear

I actually abandoned a book in mid stream. Early stream, really. Fantastic Voyage: Microcosm by Kevin J. Anderson. Remind me not to read sequels by someone other than the original author.
