Stephen Marlowe

    Stephen Marlowe, narozený jako Milton Lesser, byl plodný autor s rozsáhlým dílem, které zahrnuje přes padesát románů. Proslavil se zejména sérií detektivních příběhů s globálně cestujícím soukromým detektivem Chesterem Drumem. Jeho postava se lišila od typických detektivů svým luxusním životním stylem, který ho zaváděl na exotická místa po celém světě. Marloweova díla často čerpala z napětí špionážních příběhů a po sérii s Drumem se věnoval i jiným žánrům, včetně historické fikce.
