The lady in the lake, the little sister, the long goodbye, playback - Raymond Chandler

In this collection of Chandler's four later novels, The Lady in the Lake follows Marlowe out of his natural habitat, into the mountains of L.

and deep into trouble.

In The Little Sister, he uncovers a little blackmail, a lot of drugs, and more murder.

In The Long Goodbye, a war-scarred drunk, his nymphomaniac wife, and Marlowe are on the run from a psychotic gangster.

In Playback, there is a well-endowed redhead, murder and, of course, Marlowe.
