I’m going to be a bit cheeky and say Pulp by Charles Bukowski.
More of a spy novel series, but the Charlie Muffin books by Brian Freemantle.
I’m going to cheat slightly and say the Perfect Dreyfus series by Alastair Reynolds. Even though they’re set in the distant future, they still follow the detective novel formula in my opinion.
