One great London crime fiction book is 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' by Stieg Larsson. Although it's Swedish, a significant part of the story takes place in London. It has a complex plot with a female protagonist who is a hacker and helps in uncovering dark secrets related to a wealthy family.

Agatha Christie's 'Murder on the Orient Express' is another excellent choice. While the murder occurs on a train, the detective, Hercule Poirot, who is often associated with London, uses his brilliant mind to solve the case. Christie is a master of creating intricate crime plots in the London - like settings of her stories.
