Knopf. Dark blue full-cloth boards with blue flying bat and spine titles with Tower Mystery emblem, light shelf wear. Pages near fine with attractive toning; no writing. Retains the original blue top-stain. Bind fine, square; hinges intact. Sharp, clean first Tower edition. Raymond Chandler's hard-boiled Detective Philip Marlowe is here in a shocking and thrilling murder mystery! It started with some business about a rare coin. Everybody knew who had stolen it, but nobody was anxious to do anything about it. Marlowe couldn't understand why the old lady had hired him; she didn't seem to like detectives and didn't want to tell him much. So he started to think about her, and then about the pale, fragile, frightened little girl who was her secretary, and then about her son - which led him the the gambler, then to the gambler's luscious and lustful wife, and then to the elegant blackmailer! And so this case became a study of character, for even when murder was done, even after the second murder, character was the root of eveything. Because he understood that, Marlowe went step-by-step to a solution in the case! Sardonic, quietly cynical, cold and merciless when he has to be, but gruffly compassionate to the victims of evil, Philip Marlowe steps out of these scintillating pages as one of the greatest detectives of modern murder-mystery fiction! 240 pages.
