Have you ever read anything by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child? Those two have put out a bunch of really engrossing novels, beginning with The Relic (which was made into a bad movie).
Of theirs, I highly recommend The Ice Limit, Riptide, Thunderhead, Reliquary, and The Cabinet Of Curiosities, but they're all quite good. GREAT page-turners, and all are entirely plausible, too.
