The mention of Blood Simple and the sleazy PI played so well
by M. Emmet Walsh reminded me of a question I've been meaning
to ask. There are plenty of noble PIs throughout hardboiled
and noir. What about sleazy PIs? I can think of a few, like
Estleman's Peeper and a few with unreliable narrators (I'm
reluctant to name them, as the PIs seem to be noble at
first). Others?
