I've read a couple of great U.K. crime novels recently.

THE BUSINESS OF DYING is a great debut novel from Simon Kernick. It's very dark and very funny and Kernick's plotting is top notch.

I also loved an early Ken Bruen novel, HER LAST CALL TO LOUIS MACNEICE. Ken has been getting a lot of attention for his Jack Taylor detective novels, but if you want to read an excellent example of what noir is check out MACNEICE (nd I think it's going to be a film soon...)
