“Chandler writes like a slumming angel and invests the sun-blinded streets of Los Angeles with a romantic presence.”

Los Angeles PI Philip Marlowe is working for the Sternwood family.

Old man Sternwood, crippled and wheelchair-bound, is being given the squeeze by a blackmailer, and he wants Marlowe to make the problem go away. But with Sternwood's two wild, devil-may-care daughters prowling LA's seedy backstreets, Marlowe's got his work cut out for him—and that's before he stumbles over the first corpse.
