I know this is a bit cheesy, but I do quite like some of Sidney Sheldon's books. This is the one about a woman who, when she finds herself alone and in prison because she has been framed by some villains, sets out to one, get free and two, have her revenge.

The way that she achieves her goals is novel, and when she is done it's more like a Robin Hood story than a modern tale. Conning only people of dubious morals, she travels the world, chased by a man her equal in the ethics stakes.

Rather whiter than white, completely blameless of anything other than being naive, Tracy makes an interesting heroine, even if she is obviously written by a man. There is a rather gruesome bit in prison, but apart from that, it is just quite a good read.
