Ooooh!  Graham Greene!  One of my favorites.
I don't think _Brighton Rock_ is particularly hardboiled,
although the film version of it, starring Richard Attenborough
as Pinkie, is both hardboiled and very noirish.  

As far as hardboiled, how about _This Gun for Hire_ (aka
_A Gun for Sale_)?  Or _The Ministry of Fear_, a great
WWII spy story?  _Orient Express_ might also fit this
mold, as do most of his serious novels, in one way or
another.
