"The Dead Mountaineer's Inn" is a fairly unique sci-fi noir also from the Strugatsky brothers that was my first introduction to their work. It interested me enough that I read all their other books afterwards -- worth checking out!

Err, that's just a regular detective novel, no SF elements at all, you must be mistaken (nudge nudge)
