It should be pretty comprehensive but feel free to add (these are not what one considers to be a master work, but books published by Orion in the "Crime Masterworks" series).
Vote for your favorite and lets see which is the master of the Masterworks (void due to absence of Raymond Chandler - but its just a bit of fun).
