Show Notes
After a five-year hiatus, Raymond Chandler returns to the world of Philip Marlowe with "The Little Sister". His small-town client brings big-city trouble as the investigation into her missing brother turns up a lot of Tinseltown intrigue, including ice-pick murders and sexual betrayal. Coloured by Chandler's own experiences within the studio system, this fifth Marlowe adventure shows no mercy in presenting a deeply problematic view of show-business and the rotten cogs of its machinery.
