WIthout debating my choices   2 of my favourite authors are David Baldacci and John Sandford. Both in same genre.

Baldacci exactly as you say - Sandford - smooth, quick flowing, draws you into story so it is difficult to put down....

But.      I still read baldacci

I read and have a lot of David Baldacci, I disagree about the fillers, to me it all ties in with the story.
Admittedly, I haven't read many of his one off novels, most of what I have are sets.
Not tried any John Sandforth yet.
