'''''Inherent Vice''''' is a 2009 novel by [[Thomas Pynchon]]. Ostensibly it follows Doc Sportello, a private investigator in California trying to find a missing real estate developer on the behest of his ex-girlfriend but really the work explores a much wider set of themes including the sex, drugs and rock and roll lifestyle of the '60s and its clashes with forces of law and order with a neo-noir sensibility.
The novel was adapted into a film in 2014 by [[Paul Thomas Anderson]].
