Probably some Agatha Christie Hercule Poirot shit

The Name of the Rose

My mom has worked in a bookshop since I was a child so over the years I've read hundreds of airport novels.
They are all basically the same, just pick one at random from the best seller list if you want something contemporary.

Otherwise the only things that stands out in my mind is:
The Bourne Identity, don't bother with the rest of the trilogy though.
The Day of the Jackal
Without Remorse by Tom Clancy

And then there were none - Agatha Christie
The Maltese Falcon - Dashiel Hammett

Several Sherlock Holmes novels
The Big Sleep

This is the first time I've seen Burnt Orange Heresy mentioned on /lit. I read it a month ago but forgot all about it. It was strangely normal.

Probably something by Chandler I guess

The Last Good Kiss by James Crumley is excellent.

The Jonathan Gash novels with the antiques dealer Lovejoy are pretty good but maybe that's because I'm American and the British stuff seems like it's from another world.

Gone Girl
