I finished all the books through "The Long Goodbye". I'll say the weakest was "The Little Sister".
I don't know if it's part of the genre, but it seems every PI does everything they can do to talk somebody out of hiring them, and seem loathe to take money half the time.
I think I know whose writing style Jonathan Kellerman employs in his Alex Delaware series. Both in LA, and both extremely descriptive of their surroundings. Marlowe and Delaware know every tree, bush, flower, house style, material, wood, metal, color, and article of clothing there is to know. It's absurd in a way, but I like it.
