Farewell My Sweet is a parody of the hard-boiled detective novel of Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett. The protagonist, Dick Thrust is a cynical private eye with his office in 1950s Hollywood. He handles cases with a mixture of intelligence, compassion and sarcasm. These cases take him from the homes of the wealthiest to the run-down slums of Los Angeles. "Funnier than the Communist Manifesto" (Karl Marx) "Relatively Good" (Albert Einstein) "Ich habe dieses Buch nicht gelesen" (Adolf Hitler)
