About This Item
The Barbarous Coast (Lew Archer Series, Book #6) by Ross Macdonald
The beautiful, high-diving blonde had Hollywood dreams and stars in her eyes but now she seems to have disappeared without a trace. Hired by her hotheaded husband and her rummy "uncle," Lew Archer sniffs around Malibu and finds the stink of blackmail, blood money, and murder on every pricey silk shirt. Beset by dirty cops, a bumptious boxer turned silver-screen pretty boy, and a Hollywood mogul with a dark past, Archer discovers the secret of a grisly murder that just won't stay hidden.
Lew Archer navigates through the watery, violent world of wealth and privilege in this electrifying story of obsession gone mad.
Vintage Crime/Black Lizard, Softcover, 1956, 2007
