Published in the 1930s, Raymond Chandler's pulp magazine tales of world-weary private eye Philip Marlowe were a favorite subject for radio adaptations.

1: The Big Sleep
2: The High Window
3: The Lady in the Lake
4: The Little Sister
5: The Long Goodbye
6: Farewell My Lovely
Directed in the 1970s by John Tydeman. Dramatized by Bill Morrison.
The Lady in the Lake (11.07.1977). Blonde, beautiful and wild, Crystal Kingsley had never exactly been the faithful little wife. But when she's missing for a month and a woman's body surfaces in an isolated mountain lake, murder-a-day Marlowe is back in business.
