    About The Chill

    In The Chill a distraught young man hires private investigator Lew Archer to track down his runaway bride. But no sooner has he found Dolly Kincaid than Archer finds himself entangled in two murders, one twenty years old, the other so recent that the blood is still wet. What ensues is a detective novel of nerve-racking suspense, desperately believable characters, and one of the most intricate plots ever spun by an American crime writer.

    Praise

    "The American private eye, immortalized by Hammett, refined by Chandler, brought to its zenith by MacDonald." —The New York Times Book Review

    "An entertainment of almost Byzantine complexity in which practically nothing is as the facts would seem. . . . Highly satisfactory." —The New Yorker

    "Lew Archer . . . is a crime-fighter of the old school; painstakingly searching out the twisting thread of suspense that leads him from the hint of one complicated drama to another." —Christian Science Monitor
