George V Higgins recommends

The Big Sleep / Farewell My Lovely (1995)
(Philip Marlowe )
Raymond Chandler
"Chandler is fun to read. He's as bleak as tundra, and his dirtbag characters far outnumber his stellar citizens, but Philip Marlowe is a laconic tour guide through a zoo of truly interesting animals."
