Sci-Fi detective story is Caves of Steel by Isaac Asimov. Super cool for other reasons too.

I’m currently reading the second book of the Shadow of the Leviathan series by Robert Jackson Bennett. First book is “The Tainted Cup”. It’s basically Sherlock Holmes, but…not at all. The main POV character is the Watson sidekick to the odd Investigator. The first book is great and so far so is the second.

Glen Cook (The Black Company), has a pretty lengthy series of fantasy detective novels, that begins with Sweet Silver Blues.
Robert Jackson Bennett recently won the Hugo award for The Tainted Cup, a fantasy novel with a solid Sherlock vibe.

The name of the Rose comes to mind since it’s a murder mystery set in a medieval monetary in 1327. It was a 1980 publishing phenomena and sold 50 million copies and spawned a Sean Connery film adaptation.
