When I was a teenager, I enjoyed reading The Hardy Boys series by Franklin W. Dixon. It used to give me adrenaline rush. Unfortunately I’m not able to find similar spy/detective books which would give me the same feeling. Books from Dan Brown are the closest which got me to the edge of my seat while reading. So please suggest me some of the books which you think are similar to hardy boys.
Thanks! have a great day!

Trouble is, you’re no longer a teenager – so your reactions etc are different; you’ve read so many books, seen so many movies – nothing’s ‘new’ anymore – which is probably why you can’t find that same rush.
So all I can do is recommend a thriller/detective story writer that I really like and find gripping; and hope his books have some zip for you! Linwood Barclay’s books are real page-turners. All are good, but you could start with his excellent Promise Falls trilogy.
There are a ton of Perry Mason stories:

The Perry Mason series ranks third in the top ten best selling book series, with sales of 300 million. R. L. Stine’s Goosebumps series is ranked second, with over 400 million; J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series is first, with over 500 million.
