Gold Coast by Nelson DeMille is FANTASTIC! Plum Island is also set on Long Island.
Compromising Positions by Susan Issaacs is set in a fictional town on the north shore. It's a really good mystery. Also be her novel Lily White is set on Long Island.
Of course, The Great Gatsby 
Happy reading!

The Last Summer of You and Me by
Ann Brashares takes place on Fire Island...
ETA: I didn't see that you prefer mysteries... this one isn't a mystery.

It's not fiction and it's not a mystery, but The Tender Bar was great!

All by Nelson DeMille:
The Gold Coast - Not a favorite of mine. It was alittle slow and the main character was really whiney and annoying.
Plum Island
Word of Honor
Night Fall
Wild Fire - some of it at least.
The Lion's Game - Again, some of it.
