All these authors write fast-paced, easy-reading crime fiction.
Great list
I'm surprized this is the first mention of Patricia Cornwell. I second this recommendation. Her series is based on forensic sleuth Kay Scarpetta, medical examiner. I started reading these in college when I wanted a break from all the horrible text books

Also like Dick Francis, read those as a teen as well.
