The Little Sister

About this book

Her name is Orfamay Quest and she's come all the way from Manhattan, Kansas to find her missing brother Orrin - or that's what she tells PI Philip Marlowe, offering him a measly 20 bucks for the privilege. Before long he wishes he wasn't so charitable as the trail leads to luscious movie starlets, uppity gangsters, suspicious cops and corpses with ice picks jammed in their necks...
