Marlowe sets off on his search, but almost immediately discovers that Peterson's disappearance is merely the first in a series of bewildering events. Then a new client is shown in: young, beautiful, and expensively dressed, she wants Marlowe to find her former lover, a man named Nico Peterson. Clare? The rest would be easy to put out of my mind, but not the black-eyed blonde.It is the early 1950s, Marlowe is as restless and lonely as ever, and business is a little slow. Maybe it was time I forgot about Nico Peterson, and his sister, and the Cahuilla Club, and Clare Cavendish. This is the new Philip Marlowe mystery from the Booker Prize winning John Banville, writing as Benjamin Black.
