California private investigator Philip Marlowe, hired by a wealthy matron to track down a valuable missing coin, begins to dig deeper when he realizes the facts do not add up.
Marlowe is constantly on the move with a case involving a war-scarred drunk and his nymphomaniac wife. A psychotic gangster is on his trail; he is in trouble with the cops; and an unequaled number of corpses turn up.
Detective Philip Marlowe deals with the Los Angeles gambling circuit, a murder he stumbles upon, and three very beautiful but potentially deadly women.
Philip Marlowe, a private detective in Los Angeles in the 1930s, takes a case involving a paralyzed California millionaire, two psychotic daughters, blackmail, and murder.
