It is a classic tale of private detective Philip Marlowe. The plot focuses on the rescue of some Leander pearls stolen 19 years ago. The key will be the expression "goldfish", as a password with many meanings. The performance of the protagonist is splendid. 

Excellent thriller, masterpiece, elegant, intelligent, witty and keeps the tension. At the same time it is a tough and fascinating story.
