"In what is perhaps his strangest case Lew Archer, the celebrated private-eye, explores the secret life of a rich Californian residential suburb. A beautiful young woman has jilted her fiancé and taken up with a mysterious character who represents himself as a French political refugee. Hired to investigate this man, Archer becomes involved in several murders and a gigantic swindle. Running through the book, as a central theme, is the corrupting influence of the underworld and its money on modern society. "Black money" is the most individual of the brilliant series of novels that have won Ross Macdonald international recognition"--Half-title verso.
