Description
Philip Marlowe navigates the complex streets of Los Angeles, a city of contrasts where scheming actresses and ruthless gang members coexist with virulent inequality. As a private detective, he lives beneath the shadow of his father's troubled past. Marlowe's latest case involves a high-profile client, actress Kendra James, who seeks to track down her 17-year-old stepdaughter. However, things become complicated when Marlowe takes on another missing person search from British academic Ren Stewart, whose ex-husband has kidnapped their seven-year-old son. Set against the richly detailed ethnic neighborhoods of modern LA, Joe Ide's The Goodbye Coast is a gripping and ingeniously plotted novel that balances humor with surprising tenderness.
