I don't think these authors have been mentioned yet, but they've all written 
'series' of one sort or another. 
 
Jonathan Valin - series about a PI called Harry Stoner.  I'd rank them up 
there with the likes of Estleman and Parker. 
 
Stephen Dobyns - wrote a series about a Saratoga PI.  I think he's still 
writing.  Titles like _Saratoga Swimmer_, _Saratoga Snapper_, _Saratoga 
Headhunter_, etc. 
 
 
These aren't hard-boiled as such, but are very good in their own way: 
 
Joseph Hansen's Dave Brandstetter novels. 
 
Lawrence Gough - more police procedural set in (I think, quoting from memory) 
Vancouver. 
 
 
I also read a good novel recently called _Trinity_ by someone called Nick 
Tosches.  Has he written anything else?
