Chandler novels are the perfect thing to read on a plane. They're pulpy enough to breeze through, yet interesting enough to hold your attention for hours trying to guess the next twist in the plot. This one was perhaps my favorite. While it might not have quite as much bizarre and hilarious patter as usual, it actually had a much tighter plot than the others I've read. I found it particularly satisfying to almost figure out the twist, or, better said, to figure it out but incorrectly -- even the twist has a twist.
