The One From The Other by Philip Kerr. I love this guys stuff. It's basically Chandler-esque detective fiction set in pre and post WWII Germany. Protagonist is an ex-cop, private investigator and sometime reluctant SS officer. Like all good detective fiction protagonists he is always getting into scrapes with bad guys on both sides of the law. Here though it's not the LAPD and mob but the Gestapo, the Russian occupation forces, ex-Nazi war criminals and so on. This is number 4 in a series of 7 or 8. I've just made it sound a bit crap but they are actually great.
