Audiobook recommendations

Background -- I'm a triathlete/runner and I like to listen to audiobooks or podcasts while I train. Marathon training is starting for me next week and I need new listening material. I've listened to all of my audiobooks and exhausted the This American Life archives.

I need recommendations for audiobooks -- all of the books I currently want to read and that have been recommended to me aren't suitable for training purposes. I'll be listening while spending 3-4 hours running, so I basically need fluff that is suspenseful enough to keep my mind occupied and not too difficult to pick back up on the story if I tune out for a few minutes.

I prefer fiction and really like mysteries, and I don't like anything that could be referred to as "chick lit." In past training cycles I've listened to the DaVinci Code, Angels & Demons, the Harry Potter series, and a ton of John Grisham.

Help?
