Newton Thornburg's CUTTER AND BONE (which I was discussing on
this board a few days ago) seems to me to be the definitive
noir novel. I can't imagine anything more perfect.
I'd also recommend Robert Stone's DOG SOLDIERS, and virtually
anything by Charles Willeford, but especially THE
SHARK-INFESTED CUSTARD and PICK-UP.
