Anchorhead, a textual horror adventure in the Lovecraft style, playable on infocom interpreters; as stand-alone, there is The Hound of Shadow: both are really deep; the first is huge the second is more detective driven.

Although not a detective game in the graphic adventure mold,(more like cluedo, I guess), one should also add U.S. Gold's "Murder!", to the list.

One of my favourite game themes

Here are a few additions to what's already been mentioned:

221B Baker Street
Case of the Cautious Condor
Deja Vu (and its sequel)
In the Dead of Night
Mean Streets
Murder Makes Strange Deadfellows
Murder on the Mississippi
Sherlock Holmes: Another Bow
Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective (two sequels)
Sixth Sense Investigations
The Detective Game
The Last Express

Hmmm, if you're going cross-platform, you should consider Discworld Noir too. That's basically a detective game on the crazy world of Discworld. Humour is excellent!
