About the book

This seven-volume collection brings together the complete novels of Raymond Chandler, one of the defining writers of American crime fiction and the creator of private detective Philip Marlowe. Set largely in the darker corners of Los Angeles, Chandler's novels combine murder and mystery with sharp dialogue, moral ambiguity and vivid descriptions of corruption beneath the surface of wealth and glamour. Marlowe's intelligence, toughness and personal code of honour make him one of detective fiction's most enduring characters.
