Perchance to Dream (novel)
''Perchance to Dream'' is a detective crime novel by Robert B. Parker, written as an authorized sequel to ''The Big Sleep'' by Raymond Chandler. Following his post-mortem collaboration with Chandler on ''Poodle Springs'', this 1991 release is the second and final Philip Marlowe novel written by Parker.
==Plot==
Set a few years after the events of ''The Big Sleep'', the new novel begins with long passages of text lifted from the original to set the scene, establish the characters, and remind readers of the events of the first book. The story is set in motion by the death of family patriarch General Sternwood. Marlowe is called to the Sternwood mansion in the hills of Los Angeles by Norris, the butler. He finds older daughter Vivian still in residence and still dating gangster Eddie Mars but her younger sister Carmen, still tormented by the events of the original story, has been sent off to live at Resthaven, a luxurious psychiatric rehabilitation facility. When Carmen disappears from the rest home, Norris hires Marlowe to find her.〔〔
