I really can't think of anyone other than Jonathan Letham
(sp?). K. W. Jeter wrote Noir, but I'm not aware of him doing
any strictly hard-boiled work. There seems to be more of it
on dark horror end....where serial killers and sleuths can be
more readily adaptable to both genres. Although not
hard-boiled, but certainly a bit noirish, is Poppy Z. Brite.
Her Exquisite Corpse is not bad.
