Lew Archer is hired to find the dirt on young painter who is engaged to a wealthy mans daughter. As normal you hire Archer he keeps digging and the truth isn't what you want sometimes.
MacDonalds writing is much more than the lurid paperback cover suggests. These are novels about the human condition, greed, lust, jealousy and he writes about these things better than many more celebrated novelist's.
I rate him higher than Chandler.
