Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
You might like books by Dan Brown (Da Vinci Code, Digital Fortress, Angels and Demons, Deception Point), although, the endings can be a bit disappointing!. also try books by James Patterson (one of his novels was turned into a crime show, Women's Murder Club!.)Www@QuestionHome@Com

I just finished The Coroner's Lunch by Colin Cotterill!. It features a 72 year old doctor who is reluctantly appointed as chief of forensics and is set in Laos and Vietnam in the late 1970's!. I like it so much I am on to the next one, Thirty Three Teeth!. I think there are 4 in this series so far!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I love those TV shows too!.!.!. you have good taste
maybe you should try the Alex Rider series!?!?!?
it could be wat you are looking for
if not good luck with the book hunting
by the way!.!.!. books are way better than the shows
seriously it would not take half and hour to find the person who commited the murder!.
anyway!.!.!. have funWww@QuestionHome@Com

Any book by James Patterson is FANTASTIC! They usually have to do with the police and solving a crime and things like that!. Some Joan Lowry Nixon books have that too!. But I guarantee if you like ncis and shows like that you will LOVE James Patterson books!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You should definitely read Michael Connelly's books!. He's a brilliant crime/mystery author!. Great writing style!. His books include:
- The Poet
- The Lincoln Lawyer
- The Black Echo
