The Second Murderer

Philip Marlowe is on the hunt for a missing heiress in L.A. —and up against a rival PI—in this smart and atmospheric mystery from acclaimed crime writer and "one-of-a-kind storyteller" Denise Mina.

The Philip Marlowe character, one of the original "hard-boiled" detectives, was the creation of Raymond Chandler in the era of pulp magazines. Posthumous sequels have been authorized by the Chandler estate, and The Second Murderer is the first to be written by a woman.
