All of the Cadfael stories by Ellis Peters are very good. I would also recommend the Miss Marple stories by Agatha Christie. I didn't like Christie's other detective stories.

The Holmes stories have already been mentioned. I've read those several times over the years.

Indeed. While no doubt delicious, living on chocolate alone is not healthy.
It is one of the four food groups though.

Chocolate
Cheese
Gravy
Things to put chocolate, cheese, or gravy on

So you can't go too wrong with chocolate.

Lawrence Sanders has written wonderful stories that might fit the request.

Edward X. Delaney series:

The Anderson Tapes (1969)
The First Deadly Sin (1973)
The Second Deadly Sin (1977)
The Third Deadly Sin (1981)
The Fourth Deadly Sin (1985)

The Commandment series:

The Sixth Commandment (1978)
The Tenth Commandment (1980)
The Eighth Commandment (1986)
The Seventh Commandment (1991)

Exceptional the Timothy Cone series:

The Timothy File (1987) [collection]
Timothy's Game (1988) [collection]

Among the stand alone titles, I recommend:
The Tomorrow File (1975)
The Passion of Molly T (1984)
