Sleeping Beauty plunges private detective Lew Archer into a fascinating and intricate case connected to a disastrous oil spill on the southern California coast. It leads Archer into a load of trouble involving ransom, a lethal dose of Nembutal, the death of a stranger found floating off shore, and three generations of the imposing Lennox family, whose offshore oil platform caused the spill.
The young Lennox heiress—glimpsed for a haunting moment on the beach, clutching an oil-drenched sea bird in her arms—has disappeared, and while on her trail, Archer finds himself journeying into the hidden lives of a family twisted by money, power, and a compulsive instinct for infidelity.
If any writer can be said to have inherited the mantle of Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, it is Ross Macdonald. Sleeping Beauty is crime fiction at its best.
©1973 Ross Macdonald (P)1997 Blackstone Audio, Inc.Reseñas de la crítica
“Sleeping Beauty is particularly complex and satisfactory…It is a marvelous formula that Macdonald has found; the wonder is that he keeps improving it.”
(Newsweek)“Ross Macdonald is either part or wholly wizard…conjuring the magic of real mystery…A masterpiece.”
(Chicago Tribune Book World)“Archer solves crimes with the instincts of a psychologist and the conscience of a priest, and the mid-twentieth-century Southern California setting is a wonderful ride in the Wayback Machine.”
(Los Angeles Times, praise for the series)“Not since the novels of Nathanael West has the theme of American innocence grinding to a stop at the polluted waters of the Pacific so consistently reverberated through a body of writing.”
(Detroit News, praise for the series)“Ross Macdonald remains the grandmaster, taking the crime novel to new heights by imbuing it with psychological resonance, complexity of story, and richness of style.”
(Jonathan Kellerman, #1 New York Times bestselling author, praise for the author)
