An enjoyable mystery. Recommended, especially for some of the descriptive language.
Next up: Gently Does It by Alan Hunter, which I got back in July 2013.

I enjoy Chandler's prose immensely. He is the embodiment of noir on the page, IMO.
I am also two books away from finishing up all the George Gently books that have been released in ebook format. It's been a fun ride, though a number of the titles have not aged well, especially in terms of depiction of gender and gender roles.
