In The Lady in the Lake, hardboiled crime fiction master Raymond Chandler brings us the story of a couple of missing wives—one a rich man's and one a poor man's—who have become the objects of Philip Marlowe's investigation. One of them may have gotten a Mexican divorce and married a gigolo and the other may be dead. Marlowe's not sure he cares about either one, but he's not paid to care.

El libro no ha envejecido muy bien. Se descubre rápidamente el juego del autor. Aunque es una lectura ligera en algunos momentos se hace un poco tediosa.
