'Private eye Philip Marlowe is transplanted into 21st-century Los Angeles in this tongue-in-cheek tribute to the classic works of Raymond Chandler... The wisecracking dialogue, outlandish characters and vicious slapstick make The Goodbye Coast a joy to read from the very first page'The Times'A terrific read - pacy, with tension, pathos, wonderful descriptions of LA and some lovely one-liners'Guardian'Sunshine and skullduggery, movie stars and mayhem - Joe Ide brings us Philip Marlowe who wears our twenty-first century like a well-cut suit'Ian Rankin'How the hell do you write a mystery about Philip Marlowe, set it in Los Angeles, and still make it a total gobsmacking original?
