BLACK MONEY

Macdonald's private eye, Lew Archer is as much of an institution as Perry Mason. Whereas Mason goes after the legal loophole, Archer generally comes up with the moral lacunae of humanity. A number of murders on in what starts as an investigation into a false identity on the golden fringe of the West Coast, Archer has uncovered a startling variety of cash induced corruption. It's a thinking man's murder mystery, and fast.
