All of her books are full of suspense and mystery,
often as a whydunnit but you always care,
it's really compelling reading. |

Here is my recommendation for you http://www.themeaningofnight.com/

| Tom Robbins anything but Villa Incogneto, but I'd recommend either Jitterbug Perfume or Another Roadside Attraction. Both are amazing... If you've never read him, you really ought to. |

| If you like a great dense mystery, Foucault's Pendulum is a very rewarding read. I pooched out after the first 25 pages a number of times, but if you persevere, the book is well worth it. I've read it 6 times and always find something new. |

| I read War and Peace and would definitely recommend it though I'll never read it again because there is no way I will have as much free time ever again as I did that summer (or I guess until I'm 65 or so). |
