The Blue Hammer
By Ross Macdonald.
Published by Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group.
First published 1976.
ISBN-10: 0307279065
ISBN-13: 978-0307279064
Description:
The desert air is hot with sex and betrayal, death and
madness and only Detective Lew Archer can make sense of a killer who makes
murder a work of art.
Finding a purloined portrait of a leggy blonde
was supposed to be an easy paycheck for Archer, but that was before the bodies
began piling up. Suddenly, Archer find himself smack in the middle of a
decades-long mystery of a brilliant artist who walked into the desert and
simply disappeared. He left behind a bevy of muses, molls, dolls, and
dames-each one scrambling for what they thought was rightfully theirs.

Anne Lamott, on writing and reading:
Writing and reading decrease our sense of isolation.
It's like singing on a boat during a terrible storm at sea.
You can't stop the raging storm,
but singing can change the hearts and spirits of the people who are together on that ship.
- Anne Lamott.
