The Blue Hammer Hardcover Ross Macdonald The desert air is hot with sex and betrayal, death and madness and only Archer can make sense of a killer who makes murder a work of art. Finding a purloined portrait of a leggy blonde was supposed to be an easy paycheck for Detective Lew Archer, but that was before the bodies began piling up. Suddenly, Archer find himself smack in the middle of a decades-long mystery of a brilliant artist who walked into the desert and simply disappeared. He left behind a bevy of muses, molls, dolls, and dames-each one scrambling for what they thought was rightfully theirs

  • Ross does it Again

    Ross MacDonald was the greatest detective fiction author of his generation. He came after Chandler and Hammett. His stories have literary merit, they are absorbing and surprising. I love all of his books. "The Blue Hammer" is one of his later books and lives up to his high standard. Love it. Thanks so much for making a first edition affordable.
