I was about to mention John Shannon's Jack Liffey books,
which are still being written. I've read the first six, and
number 9 (I think) is due out this year.
"Ray Shannon's" FIRECRACKER features
a PI, and I was hoping it's the beginning of a series, but I
haven't seen any more yet, and it's been a couple of years.
(And if whoever was looking for Las Vegas books still is,
this book covers contemporary casinos and streets.) But I
really miss the Gar Anthony Haywood PIs. I prefer broke to
successful.
The Thomas Lipinski books, set in
Pittsburgh, seem to have stopped some years back. Joy
