Marloweâs investigation takes him to the Corbata Club, an exclusive den of iniquity frequented by the crème de la crème of Los Angeles. He quickly falls under the spell of the seductive Ms Cavendish, leading him to clash with his former colleagues in the Los Angeles Police Department, as he f inds himself diving into the dark underbelly of Hollywoodâs burgeoning film business and tangling with one of Bay Cityâs richest and most powerful families.
