My recent addiction is Barry Eisler. His John Rain series was superb. His Ben Treven series is not quite as good but still above average.
Eisler's prose is more lyrical and descriptive than the typical author. His location research is great. The character development in the Rain series is a cut above the average thriller. He didn't fudge any of the world-wide locations I've visited myself.
He seems to scratch a similar tough-guy itch as Lee Child does with his Reacher series. But Child's prose is not as special and Reacher is less three-dimensional or believable than Rain.
