The Big Sleep

So the next series of images I'm planning on producing next week are five or six character portraits from Raymond Chandler's novel 'The Big Sleep', the first novel that introduces Chandler's iconic hard boiled detective Philip Marlowe, to whom most detective characters aspire to be as.
