The second Lew Archer novel, I think - filmed with Paul Newman. There's a small town, drinkers, dodgy cops, a gay husband, a matriach, troublesome teen, a chauffer. It's a solid mystery. Archer didn't come alive for me the way Philip Marlowe did - maybe it's me. His philosophising can be interesting.
