Hardley Chase took a vacation ba? Anyway, u try

Hadley Chase na writer not detective

Detective Alex Cross

Kay Scarpetta..although she's more of a medical examiner

Birdy Edwards and his infiltration of the scrowlers in Arthur Conan Doyle's 'The valley of fear', is another competent albeit short played detective.

Lieutenant columbo is the best but Adrian Monk is also good

I just love Hercule Poirot.

No Batman?

5. Frank Drebin: He's a member of the Police Squad! series and N.aked Gun movies played by Leslie Nielsen. And if you think Clouseau is funny, here is the true king of incompetent detective who-solves cases anyhow! He's a more comic figure; known for being a bumbling fool, causing lots of problems, often more than he solves, but being entirely oblivious to it all. Frank Drebin would frequently switch between being an utter genius and a complete moro.n. He just as well lacks having pity and compassion towards struggling individuals when they need it, and having any of it when conversing with officials who confront him about his mistakes. Regardless, he managed to stop Ricardo Montalban, Robert Goulet, and Fred Ward's evil plots, while occasionally running into Weird Al Yankovic.

I can't get enough of James Patterson's novels.

Thanks OP.

This is exactly what my sister and I were discussing tonight. We read a lot of Hercules Poirot and Sherlock Holmes. We looking for where to buy those books again.

But there's someone missing out on your list. Lawyer Perry Mason. I can't remember the author, but that's the detective character in the novel series back then.

This thread is for fictional crime detective characters, not their authors/writers. And even so Hadley Chase was no match for Dame Agatha Christie.
