Red Harvest
Double Indemnity

George Pelecanos writes what I guess could be classified as 'neo-noir' detective novels. The four Derek Strange/Terry Quinn books are very good, as is the 'Nick Stefanos Series,' as listed here:

(Note: Nick's Trip is a rather odd book; not the place to start with Pelecanos.)
