Yeah, and Stark's other side, Donald E. Westlake has written some good ones too. I recently read one of his earlier comic novels "The Fugitive Pigeon" as well as the first two "Dortmunder" books: "The Hot Rock" and "Bank Shot." (In the first one they steal a gem over and over again and in the second they literally steal a bank.)
And his 1997 novel "The Ax" could be seen as a parable of today's job market: the protagonist researches all the candidates likely to be in front of him for a job, tracks them down and does away with them.
