When private detective Philip Marlowe's latest client, Orfamay Quest, hires him to find her missing brother for the paltry sum of twenty dollars, Marlowe discovers that it's far from a simple missing persons case. Not when it involves mobsters, blackmail, beautiful women ... and murders. Lark's impressive comics adaptation of Chandler's archetypal hardboiled detective novel integrates the best of the latter's classic tough-guy dialogue and feverishly intricate plotting with Lark's stylishly noir illustrations. --Publisher's Weekly

COMENTARIO/REVIEWS
"Lark’s impressive comics adaptation of Chandler’s archetypal hardboiled detective novel integrates the best of the latter’s classic tough-guy dialogue and feverishly intricate plotting with Lark’s stylishly noir illustrations." --Publisher’s Weekly
"So, I read comic books--you want to make something of it? Not that "comic book" is the proper term, anyway, for a work of art like Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe: The Little Sister ... this stunning graphic novel is as visually alluring as the big, bad city after dark." –Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review
