Ross Macdonald 24 books by classic hardboiled mystery writer Ross Macdonald and 1 book about him. Several books are duplicates: I found they had significantly different formatting, so you can choose which you like best. All the books by Macdonald are here in at least epub and mobi; there is also a smattering of other file formats, such at txt, lit, doc and rtf. "A Ross Macdonald Companion" is a pdf file. Files are calibre-ready, with covers and complete metadata. "Legacy," from wikipedia: Ross Macdonald is the primary heir to Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler as the master of American hardboiled mysteries. His writing built on the pithy style of his predecessors by adding psychological depth and insights into the motivations of his characters. Macdonald's plots were complicated, and often turned on Archer's unearthing family secrets of his clients and of the criminals who victimized them. Lost or wayward sons and daughters were a theme common to many of the novels. Macdonald deftly combined the two sides of the mystery genre, the "whodunit" and the psychological thriller. by Ross Macdonald: Archer in Jeopardy: The Doomsters, The Zebra-Striped Hearse, The Instant Enemy Barbarous Coast, The Black Money Blue City Blue Hammer Chill, The Dark Tunnel, The Doomsters, The Drowning Pool, The Far Side of the Dollar, The Ferguson Affair, The Find a Victim Galton Case, The Goodbye Look, The Instant Enemy, The Ivory Grin, The Meet Me at the Morgue Moving Target, The Name Is Archer, The Sleeping Beauty Underground Man, The Way Some People Die, The Wycherly Woman, The Zebra-Striped Hearse, The by Robert Gale: A Ross Macdonald Companion (pdf)
