Synopsis: In this short story from Raymond Chandler’s Trouble is My Business, the iconic private eye, Philip Marlowe, takes up the case of the Leander Pearls. Stolen decades ago, the thief was caught but the pearls themselves were never recovered. With the $25,000 reward still on the table, Marlowe’s on the case, but he soon realizes he’s not the only one.

A quintessential work of detective fiction, Goldfish is a classic Marlowe caper, filled with twists, turns, and double-crosses.
