On my own, too. Forty thousand dollars.' If anyone could rob a bank on his own, it's Moose Malloy. He's as hard as stone and as big as a bus.

Moose Malloy. The Great Bend bank job - that was me. On my own too. Forty thousand dollars. If anyone could rob a bank on his own it s Moose Malloy. He s as hard as stone and as big as a bus. Now he s out of prison and he wants two things to know who gave his name to the police eight years ago and to find his girlfriend. Moose means trouble and it s the sort of trouble a private detective should stay away from. So of course Philip Marlowe runs straight into it trouble with the police trouble with women trouble with almost every criminal in California . . . And trouble with murder. Even when he tries to walk away from it this sort of trouble just follows him around . Raymond Chandler is one of the greatest modem detective writers. He turned the American crime story into a kind of art. He was bom in 1888 in Chicago Illinois but was brought up and educated in England. He worked as a reporter in London before returning in 1912 to the USA. After fighting in France during World War I he lived and worked in California. He lost his job in 1932. Then he started to write crime stories for magazines. His first book The Big Sleep 1939 was about a private detective Philip Marlowe. It was a great success and he wrote about Marlowe in many other books including Farewell My Lovely 1940 The High Window 1942 The Lady in the Lake 1944 and The Long Goodbye 1953 . Many of his books have been made into successful films. Raymond Chandler died in 1959. Chapter 1 Moose Malloy It was a warm day almost the end of March. I was over on Main Street looking up at the sign of a second floor nightclub called Florian s. There was a man near me looking up at the sign too his eyes dreamy and a little shiny with tears as if he was thinking of other people other times he d known there. He was a big man but not much taller than six and a half feet and not much wider than a bus.
