It’s a hot, humid day in the city, and Marlowe is frustrated by a xylophone playing neighbor. He also takes a phone call from a terse apartment dweller. How did his phone number ring in at the other room? In the hall, Marlowe finds a wealth of information in the form of Mrs Garrity. The gossipy woman, who doesn’t know anybody, or anything about them is tough to get away from. Has Marlowe missed another call? What’s the story with Art, the grumpy neighbor, and Rena, a dame who comes to see him?
Phone mix ups, xylophones, and unhappy neighbors. What next… gunplay? Soon Marlowe uncovers all sorts of drama right at his doorstep. Mishandled investments, and murder. Marlowe manages to resolve the problems quietly… except for that xylophone player.
