Jane Harper, Australian author. Great mystery writer, engaging characters and storylines. Start with "The Dry".

+1!

Anything by Tana French, but I like The Secret Place.

The movie with Eric Bana is also a very faithful adaptation, and they’re making one of “force of nature” as well.

The Quincunx by Charles Palliser

Kate Atkinson's Jackson Brodie series. Case Histories is the first one--so so good!

Silent in the Grave by Deanna Raybourn. Something like 500 pages. Couldn't put it down.

I just finished Homecoming by Kate Morton - I enjoyed it very much. She is good at writing historical fiction juxtaposed with modern day and throwing in an intriguing mystery.
