One I found amusing is Case for Three Detectives by Leo Bruce.

I would second the recommendation of Edmund Crispin's The Case of the Gilded Fly.

If you're not already familiar with them, you might want to take a look at these two websites. One is an article from The Guardian, the other "A Locked Room Library" by John Pugmire, which lists a lot of locked-room mysteries, some of them ranked, not all of which are available new (or as ebooks).
