In a rundown house in Santa Monica, Mrs. Samuel Lawrence presses
fifty crumpled bills into Lew Archer's hand and asks him to find
her wandering daughter, Galatea. Described as ' crazy for men' and
without discrimination, she was last seen driving off with
small-time gangster Joe Tarantine, a hophead hood with a rep for
violence. Archer traces the hidden trail from San Francisco slum
alleys to the luxury of Palm Springs, traveling through an urban
wilderness of drugs and viciousness. As the bodies begin to pile
up, he finds that even angel faces can mask the blackest of hearts.
Filled with dope, delinquents and murder, this is classic Macdonald
and one of his very best in the Lew Archer series.
