The Little Sister

by Raymond Chandler


Review this book!

Orfamay Quest of Manhattan, Kansas, is a "small, neat, rather prissy-looking girl with primly smooth brown hair and rimless glasses." She approaches the detective Marlowe to help her find her missing brother, but she can only afford to pay him $20. What Orfamay Quest doesn't tell Marlowe is that her half-sister is a movie starlet with mob connections. This is the first Chandler novel concerned with the movie industry, a business he knew all too well. He is primarily interested in how the Hollywood mentality can affect people, even small-town folk from Kansas.

Media Reviews

"It's the only book of mind I have actively disliked. It was written in a bad mood and I think that comes through."
