Never read Corben...maybe the Lee Child books on Jack Reacher?

Maybe James Lee Burke’s Dave Robicheaux books.

Jason Bourne, maybe?

I'll second the Jack Carr books. Reading them now and have enjoyed the first 3, currently on the 4th.

Plum Island by Nelson DeMille
A Coffin for Dimitrious by Eric Ambler
Killing Floor by Lee Child
Bearskin by James McLaughlin
Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith
Gorky Park by Martin Cruz Smith
The Talented Mr. Ripley by Patricia Highsmith
The Getaway or After Dark My Sweet or The Grifters by Jim Thompson
The Jugger by Richard Stark (this is a series but can stand alone)
Dark Matter by Blake Crouch

Most of that is more hard boiled crime but sort of works. Hope you choose Bearskin. Pretty unknown and pretty good. Have fun.

Daniel Silva has some spy books that are really engaging and enjoyable. They center around an Israeli spy named Gabriel Allon.

The Gray Man series is great.

Jack Carr's James Reece series (The Terminal List) is outstanding.

Preston & Child's Pendergast series is damn good, too.
