Laurel Dane was no angel. She'd changed men as often as she'd changed her hair color, and there was plenty in her past she'd like to forget. But no one deserved to be beaten to death, and private eye Ed Clive didn't believe that her boyfriend had killed her. Pursuing her own lonely trail, he found out just how easily jealousy and twisted rage could turn a human being into a monster of violence.

Anyone wanting a good hard-boiled detective story couldn't find anything better that this. Leigh Brackett deserves to be listed among the masters of this genre in spite of the few books she has in this vein.

Ed Clive is hard-hitting, with his own code,he shots to kill and kisses the dames. Great read. (

Private eye Ed Clive has a problem. The woman he was interested in has been murdered and his (former) best friend has been arrested. Ed sets out to find the real killer but crooks, cops and corpses keep getting in the way. An entertaining tough guy mystery from 1944. (

This is the novel that caused director Howard Hawks to tell his assistant he wanted that “Lee Brackett” guy to work on the screenplay for The Big Sleep.

Arguably, Corpse is very much in the Chandler train. The PI hero, Ed Clive is a self-willed and ruggedly independent street warrior with his own code of conduct. He finds himself mixed up, quite unwillingly but as certainly as a samurai in a kabuki tale, in the affairs of Mike Hammond and his twisted in-laws. (

It is better to live,
Even to live miserably;
The halt can ride on horseback;
The one-handed, drive cattle;
The deaf, fight and be useful'
To be blind is better
Than to be burnt:
No one gets good from a corpse. - Havamal
