I read "Missing Person" recently and enjoyed it (it has a much better title in French: Rue des Boutiques Obscures).

It reminded me of a little of Leo Malet's novels, which also feature an antihero detective and a political undercurrent, although it's a little tougher.

The amnesiac main character also reminded me, weirdly, of William Hjortsberg's fantastic pulp novel Falling Angel (today best known via Alan Parker's the film adaptation, Angel Heart), although that novel's plot goes into a rather different direction.
