Loved Kate Griffen's "Madness of Angels" and the rest of the Matthew Swift series.
Adored Ben Aaronovitch's "Rivers of London" PC Grant Series.
Currently reading the Laundry Files by Charles Stross. Weirdly - they are a bit much for me. They feel more.... tense? Maybe it's the Whole World Going to Hell No Matter What aspect? I'm not sure. Good, but a little Too Much. Also, I love the badass ladies but am saddened at the lack of minorities. IN LONDON. Also, none of his characters ever go out for a curry and this strikes me as utterly wrong (even though I, myself, cannot eat curry). My NYC sensibilities feel that having a cup of tea, and going out for a curry (or a kebab) are Things Londoners Do. Things NYers do: go for coffee. We drink a lot of fucking coffee.
SUGGESTIONS?
