书籍介绍
这或许是钱德勒笔下最"不体面"的一桩案子:没有高智商博弈,只有过热的爱情、过量的美酒和一步步失控的暴怒,把两个下流人推向杀人致死的结局。硬汉侦探马洛依旧冷静克制,像个局外人冷眼旁观这场由风流账酿成的悲剧;而凶手却是"世间实在很多"的阴险连环杀人美女,让"自己执法、与魔鬼同殉"成了诱人的诱惑。与钱德勒其他名作相比,它的反转干净利落,人物善恶分明到近乎脸谱,正因如此,有人视其为"青葱时期"的利落爽文,也有人嫌它成就有限。它适合想轻松读完一桩黑色案件、又对钱德勒笔法感兴趣的读者——毕竟连评论都打趣:上班摸鱼看它,药效都要打折。

精彩摘录
  • "两个下流人之间的令人厌恶的风流帐,过热的爱情,过量的美酒,过分的亲近,导致了残暴的恨意、杀人致死的冲动和死亡的结局。"
  • "A hatless pale man with a face like a building superintendent was watching the work and looking as if it was breaking his heart."
  • "One drop of that in the hollow of your throat and the matched pink pearls started falling on you like summer rain."
  • "The edges of the folded handkerchief in the breast pocket looked sharp enough to slice bread."
  • "She looked playful and eager, but not quite sure of herself, like a new kitten in a house where they don’t care much about kittens."
  • "The minutes went by on tiptoe, with their fingers to their lips."
  • "“I don’t like your manner,” Kingsley said in a voice you could have cracked a Brazil nut on. “That’s all right,” I said. “I’m not selling it.”"
  • "He reared back as if I had hung a week-old mackerel under his nose."
