Been so long since I binged an anime of this genre. What are some detective anime that are suspenseful and entertaining?

DAMES FOR HIRE: HOLOCITY CASE FILES #1 is a prequel spin-off of the BUBBLES IN SPACE series by S.C. Jensen. Bubbles in Space is a Neo-Noir thriller series set in HoloCity, a cyberpunk dystopia. Without spoiling, her private eye career takes something of a sideline to larger events so this seems to be based on the kind of cases she took before the first book. In other words, the main series is cyberpunk adventure while this is more detective series. I'm entirely cool with that.
In this book, a customer comes to Bubbles looking to have someone rubbed out in order to protect his daughter from being taken advantage of. Bubbles isn't into contract murder but agrees to investigate the potental target for the good of the customer's stepdaughter. What follows is a story of sex, gambling, inheritance, and Bubbles trying to do a job she is uniquely unqualified for. The ending is also a classic "locked room" with the killers that I loved the update to.
The appeal of this book is that it manages to do what the main series was unable to do and keep a focus on the detective fiction element of Bubbles' story. Bubbles is a somewhat questionably skilled investigator as she's frequently distracted by her own troubles as well as lacking in the hyper-observation that other fictional detectives possess. This is an interesting twist as Bubbles upfront and somewhat bumbling nature frequently leads her enemies to overestimate her throughout the book. This results in them leading a trail right back to their doorsteps.
Bubbles is an exceptionally likable character with a sarcastic and everywoman quality to her. She doesn't want to be involved with a client whose first response to a situation is to have his daughter's girlfriend rubbed out. However, Bubbles is running low on funds and her client is her best friend's boss. She thinks she can navigate things and keep the bloodshed to a minimum but Bubbles is never quite as on top of things like she wants to be. This makes the story dynamic and fairly unpredictable.
HoloCity is a delightfully sleazy place without ever going over PG-13 in terms of sex or violence. S.C. Jensen does a great job of using 1930s lingo in the future to give it an "off" feel while also filling its wealthy classes with every manner or perversion but letting the reader figure out just what it means. It was a bit like trying to adapt The Maltese Falcon and The Big Sleep during the era of the Hayes Code as both films are based on books that are gritty as

As far as I know, the only Medical Detectives era episodes that are available on youtube in the original format are The Footpath Murders (S1E4), Deadly Neighborhoods (S1E9), Outbreak (S1E11), Raw Terror (S1E13), Sealed with a Kiss (S2E10), Deadly Parasites (S2E13) and Foreign Body (S3E4). One channel managed to upload a couple of episodes, albeit in bad quality in an attempt to evade copyrights. Almost invariably they are gonna have the CBS Reality bug since it's the only English-language channel that airs them in their original format. On Dailymotion, more can be found: The Disappearance of Helle Crafts (S1E1), The Magic Bullet (S1E2), The House that Roared (S1E3), Planted Evidence (S1E5), The Wilson Murder (S1E8), Insect Clues (S1E10), Outbreak (S1E11), Killer Fog (S2E3), Sex, Lies and DNA (S2E4), and Cement the Case (S4E4).
Seveal years ago, the official Forensic Files website actually hosted the original versions of these episodes, such as Knot for Everyone, The Common Thread and Speck of Evidence. After a website reformat it seems these episodes are gone.
Otherwise the only other way is to either live in the UK and DVR airings or chase university libraries in the hopes of finding the DVDs/VHSs of them.
Hello Readers,
This is Detective Jason Layne. For those who have been following this account for some time you already know me as the one sharing these Case Files with you all.
Ontop of that I am a Detective in the organization that deals with these Paranormal situations.
A few of you have messaged me asking questions about myself or my organization. Due to this I have decided decided to do a AMA (Ask Me Anything) within reason of course.
It does not have to be related to a Case File or anything Paranormal, Anything at all you'd like to ask me please feel free. If I can answer it I will.
I look forward to speaking with you all.
Regards, Detective Jason Layne
