Red Harvest is a short and easy read, and it's considered a seminal classic in the noir/American crime genre. If you've ever watched Yojimbo or A Fistful of Dollars, you might recognize some of the plot beats.

Anything Shirley Jackson wrote is a good bet. Good for this time of year, too. Her most famous works are Haunting of Hill House and We Have Always Lived in the Castle and those are both great, but for some reason it's her novel The Sundial that's stuck with me the longest.
