"Marathon Man" ($15, originally $20)

If you're in the market for a propulsive conspiracy thriller, try William Goldman's "Marathon Man." In the book, marathon runner Thomas "Babe" Levy is an awkward, ordinary guy just trying his best after his famous father's suicide, but he finds his life upended even more when he's implicated in a plot involving a Nazi fugitive trying to steal diamonds in New York. Caught in a cat and mouse game, Babe has to call on all his courage and resourcefulness to untangle a vast conspiracy and emerge with his life intact.
