The Big Sleep

The Big Sleep is by Raymond Chandler. The first of the Philip Marlowe historical fiction noir mystery series. Philip Marlowe is contacted by General Sternwood to handle a blackmail case involving his youngest daughter. Marlowe finds himself involved in everything from drugs, to pornography, to murder. The book is almost as good as the movie, but no one beats Bogie and Bacall! A Reader's Corner Highly Recommend Read. 

Ratings: 12th grade - 9 out of 10 - AC (mature thematic content).
