Summary |
Fast-talking, trouble-seeking private eye Philip Marlowe is a different kind of detective: a moral man in an amoral world. The Big Sleep finds the world-weary, wisecracking PI consulted by a wealthy family man with a big problem: his daughters. With four million dollars behind them, blackmail was only a matter of time. And blackmail can be murder... Starring Toby Stephens, this landmark dramatisation retains all the suspense of Chandler's superb first novel. |
