There are quite a few crime mysteries done as SF: Richard Paul Russo's 'Carlucci' series and Jonathan Lethem's 'Gun with Occasional Music' spring to mind. Spy type novels like Le Carre are rarer. William Burrough's 'Nova Express' is a surreal example. Eric Frank Russell has a more conventional novel called Wasp about an agent who disguises himself as an alien in order to disrupt their war effort against Earth.
Charles Stross' 'Laundry Files' series is a supernatural spy thriller.
