The King In Yellow By Raymond Chandler | Detective & Mystery | Audiobook

The King In Yellow involved a house detective in a fancy hotel (Grayce/Marlowe) who discovers famous jazz trumpeter King Leopardi dead in his bed in yellow pyjamas (although it seems yellow is his trademark colour, his actual pyjamas had been swapped for others). The pyjamas and name cause the detective to mutter "The king in yellow" as he remembers a book he once read (inferred to be Chambers' book, but it could equally mean the dread play itself).

Raymond Thornton Chandler was an American-British novelist and screenwriter. In 1932, at the age of forty-four, Chandler became a detective fiction writer after losing his job as an oil company executive during the Great Depression.
