"A wealthy Pasadena widow with a mean streak, a missing daughter-in-law with a past, and a gold coin worth a small fortune -- the elements don't quite add up until Marlowe discovers evidence of murder, rape, blackmail, and the worst kind of human exploitation."
"The task is simple: recover the Brasher doubloon, a valuable gold coin stolen from its owner. But the underground world of ancient artifacts that detective Philip Marlow must navigate is anything but simple. How do an angry Pasadena widow, a missing daughter-in-law with a mysterious past, and a rare gold coin worth a small fortune become entangled in a web of murder, rape, blackmail and human exploitation' Marlowe must find out'before he too becomes caught. The High Window is the third of crime-fiction writer Raymond Chandler's novels to feature hard-boiled Los Angeles detective Philip Marlowe, who first appeared in The Big Sleep and then featured in dozens of Chandler's short stories and novels. The High Window has been adapted for radio and film (as Time to Kill in 1942 and The Brasher Doubloon in 1947.)

"Philip Marlowe's on a case: his client, a dried-up husk of a woman, wants him to recover a rare gold coin called a Brasher Doubloon, missing from her late husband's collection. That's the simple part. It becomes more complicated when Marlowe finds that everyone who handles the coin suffers a run of very bad luck: they always end up dead. That's also unlucky for a private investigator, because leaving a trail of corpses around LA gets cops' noses out of joint. If Marlowe doesn't wrap this one up fast, he's going to end up in jail --or worse, in a box in the ground ..."@en
"Detective and mystery stories. Philip Marlowe's client, a dried-up husk of a woman, wants him to recover a rare gold coin called a Brasher Doubloon, missing from her late husband's collection. Easy. Probably too easy. Unfortunately, each time the Doubloon pops up, so does a murder. That's unlucky for a private investigator, because leaving a trail of corpses around LA gets cops' noses out of joint. If Marlowe doesn't wrap this one up fast, he's going to end up in jail - or worse, in a box in the ground."
"Philip Marlowe gets involved when limp-wristed and snidley Leslie Murdock steals a rare doubloon from his mother to give to a newsreel photographer in exchange for film that is being used for blackmail purposes. Marlowe's involvement has him encounter a girl who goes into hysterics when touched by a man; a husband-killing woman; three corpses; a couple of scuffles in which he gets his clock cleaned; a secretary who thinks she has killed her boss, which is the reason Raymond Chandler called his story "The High Window", and a son (who qualifies as a S.O.B. by two definitions) who blackmails his widowed mother."@en
