A couple of missing wives—one a rich man's and one a poor man's—become the objects of Marlowe's investigation. One of them may have gotten a Mexican divorce and married a gigolo and the other may be dead. Marlowe's not sure he cares about either one, but he's not paid to care.
...a fine example of a noir classic, and Chandler illustrates why he is considered one of the finest writers of hard boiled detective noir.
