Take on six mysterious cases as Raymond Chandler´s legendary hard-boiled detective returns in Philip Marlowe: Private Eye. Emmy Award-winner Powers Boothe (The Story of Jim Jones, Nixon) is perfectly cast as the tough, seen-it-all private investigator made famous in The Big Sleep and Farewell, My Lovely.
In the "dirty ´30s," Marlowe´s Los Angeles is the real Sin City - a fallen world where glamorous appearances mask sordid deeds. A town filled with cons, high rollers, low-lifes, pretty dames and men on the make. A place where wealth buys off crooked cops. A once-grand city gone to seed.
Raymond Chandler´s best short stories - some featuring the Philip Marlowe character for the first time - come to life in this special collection as the hard-nosed detective combs L.A.´s seedy sidestreets, smoke-filled barrooms and elegant Hollywood mansions.
