Ross MacDonald: The Underground Man (USA 1971) From the Publisher: The Underground Man brings Macdonald's cool, pragmatic detective, Lew Archer, to a tragic fire that ravages a hillside community in Southern California. It enmeshes him in the lives of a group of troubled people searching for happy endings but fatally entangled in a web of murder and extortion stretching back through fifteen years -- an angry father whose whole life has been a kind of breakdown, a mother using her son as a scapegoat, a pair of alienated adolescents who believe they are rescuing a child from the adult world, and a sad woman living with a dreadful secret. The result is a novel that mingles unfaltering suspense with that extraordinary perception of an American life-style (West Coast Affluent) that is the hallmark of Ross Macdonald. Ross MacDonald: The Underground Man. The first Lew Archer novel since the best-selling The Goodbye Look. Alfred A Knopf, SBN: 394-43467-6 (February, 1971), 272 p., $5.95.
