"Mrs. Nelson thinks her husband may be having an illicit affair- a run-of-the-mill situation as far as John Marshall Tanner, one-time lawyer turned investigator, is concerned. Except that the beautiful Mrs. Nelson doesn't want her husband's infidelity documented. The facts must be covered up to protect him from scandal and blackmail. With the first sentences of the book, you will know you are in the hands of a great Chandler fan and detective story craftsman." Clean copy.
