A dame needs Marlowe’s help. The mystery deepens to involve a damaged car, a hit and run, and just exactly who is the man in the high collar? Gunshots lead to a rising body count, and the pressure for Marlowe is cranked up a notch.
Retracing his steps, Marlowe begins putting the pieces together. Secrets fall into Marlowe’s lap, and it becomes clear where his next step will be… right into the face of danger.
