Description
"Raymond Chandler's iconic detective, Philip Marlowe, gets a dramatic and colorful reinvention at the hands of award-winning novelist Joe Ide. The seductive and relentless figure of Raymond Chandlers detective, Philip Marlowe, is vividly re-imagined in present-day Los Angeles. Here is a city of scheming Malibu actresses, ruthless gang members, virulent inequality, and washed-out police. Acclaimed and award-winning novelist Joe Ide imagines a Marlowe very much of our time: hes a quiet, lonely, and remarkably capable and confident private detective, though he lives beneath the shadow of his father, a once-decorated LAPD homicide detective, famous throughout the city, whos given in to drink after the death of Marlowes mother. Marlowe, against his better judgement, accepts two missing person cases, the first a daughter of a faded, tyrannical Hollywood starlet, and the second, a British child stolen from his mother by his father. At the center of COAST is Marlowes troubled and confounding relationship with his father, a son who despises yet respects his dad, and a dad whos unable to hide his bitter disappointment with his grown boy. Together, they will realize that one of their clients may be responsible for murder of her own husband, a washed-up director in debt to Albanian and Russian gangsters, and that the clients trouble-making daughter may not be what she seems. Steeped in the richly detailed ethnic neighborhoods of modern LA, Ides COAST is a bold recreation that is viciously funny, ingeniously plotted, and surprisingly tender."--Publisher.
