Fast-talking, trouble-seeking private eye Philip Marlowe is a different kind of detective: a moral man in an amoral world. California in the '40s & '50s is as rotten to the core as it is as beautiful as ripe fruit but Marlowe must struggle to retain his integrity amidst the corruption he encounters daily. in Farewell My Lovely, Marlowe has a chance encounter with a not-so-gentle giant outside Florian's nightclub. Moose Malloy is just released from prison & searching for old flame, red-haired Velma Valento, who he hasn't seen in 8 years. But before Marlowe can blink, Malloy has smashed up the club, broken the manager's neck & headed out of the door. Marlowe knows this mess is none of his business but he has a hunch he can find Velma. But he just has to hope that curiosity doesn't get him killed as well... This audiobook contains 2 CDs & has a run time of 90 minutes
