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 and that's before he stumbles over the first corpse.

Brilliant. The original detective series.

A fantastic read and exactly what you would expect of a classic private eye novel. The story unfolds in suitably cryptic way and Phillip Marlow is as tough as they come, other such novels pale in comparison.
