Name that author

On a busy European street, the killer serpentined through a crowd. He was a powerful man. Dark and potent. Deceptively agile. His muscles still felt hard from the thrill of his meeting.

I was going to say early Robert Ludlum, but even though he's released 4 books since he died, they're more polished than the sample.

I'm gonna say Dan Brown. I'm certain the second sample is Dan Brown, but only because about 3 thrillers have ever set themselves at CERN. And there was one set at the Superconducting SuperCollider, but that was more SF. And it had a hivemind in it.
