The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler is $1.99 at Amazon US.

One of the great detective novels. It's densely plotted (perhaps too densely plotted; I had to read the book three times before I was sure I understood what was going on) and Raymond Chadler's narration is fantastic. He's one of my favorite writers.

Quote:
The iconic first novel from crime fiction master Raymond Chandler, featuring Philip Marlowe, the "quintessential urban private eye" (Los Angeles Times).

A dying millionaire hires private eye Philip Marlowe to handle the blackmailer of one of his two troublesome daughters, and Marlowe finds himself involved with more than extortion. Kidnapping, pornography, seduction, and murder are just a few of the complications he gets caught up in.
