[Jack Fulham]

Always found John Grisham's crime thriller novels quite good. A lot of them are to do with law but I find that side quite interesting. If you like historical fiction, Bernard Cornwell's saxon series is amazing. I've read all five books in the game of thrones and they're brilliant although the 5th is particularly long, you may just be best off buying the second one of that series for your trip.
