Description:
When
a millionaire matriarch is found floating face-down in the family pool, the
prime suspects are her good-for-nothing son and his seductive teenage daughter.
In The Drowning Pool, Lew Archer takes this case in the L.A. suburbs and
encounters a moral wasteland of corporate greed and family hatred – and
sufficient motive for a dozen murders.
