<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A classic Lew Archer mystery from a Mystery Writers of America's Grand Master. Archer is on a long, wild journey up and down the coasts of California and Mexico trying to find the killer of two--more or less--innocent people. The zebra-striped hearse is just another hazy piece in this sinister puzzle facing the intrepid gumshoe. Previous publisher: Bantam.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Strictly speaking, Lew Archer is only supposed to dig up the dirt on a rich man's suspicious soon-to-be son-in-law. But in no time at all Archer is following a trail of corpses from the citrus belt to Mazatlan. And then there is the zebra-striped hearse and its crew of beautiful, sunburned surfers, whose path seems to keep crossing the son-in-law's and Archer's in a powerful, fast-paced novel of murder on the California coast."<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ross Macdonald's real name was Kenneth Millar.
