There are a lot of good ones listed here, so I won't repeat them.
I primarily read mystery stories, and what kills them for me is when the protagonist or a close friend of their's is the primary suspect, and the goal shifts from solving the mystery to proving one's innocence. This changes the character of the book from a mystery to a suspense book, is very distracting, and always causes me skip to the end (and not buy another book from that author).
I really wanted to like Death on Demand, for example, but the fact that the lead was always the suspect, and that the police officer had blinders on to obvious cluses to the contrary, quickly killed my interest in the series.
