"A beautiful job . . . rich in plot and character . . . up to Mr. Macdonald's extraordinarily high standards."
--The New York Times Book Review

Lew Archer is hired to investigate the suspicious French "aristocrat" who's run off with his client's girlfriend - only to uncover a mountain of gambling debts and a seven-year-old suicide with lethal repercussions in the present.

Black Money is Ross Macdonald at his finest, baring the skull beneath the suntanned skin of Southern California's high society.

Review:
Next time someone who doesn't read mysteries asks where they should start, point them toward Ross Macdonald. Luckily, Vintage/Black Lizard is reprinting several of Macdonald's classic Lew Archer novels in handsome new quality paperback versions. If Black Money (or the other two books in the current series, The Drowning Pool and The Chill) don't have them panting for more, they're probably hopeless cases.
About the Author:
Through the character of Lew Archer, Ross Macdonald gave the American crime novel a psychological depth and moral complexity that his predecessors had only hinted at.  The series has been called "The finest series of detective novels ever written." by the New York Times.
