Samuel Dashiell Hammett was an American author of hardboiled detective novels and short stories. Among the enduring characters he created are Sam Spade (The Maltese Falcon), Nick and Nora Charles (The Thin Man), and the Continental Op (Red Harvest and The Dain Curse). In addition to the significant influence his novels and stories had on film, Hammett "is now widely regarded as one of the finest mystery writers of all time" and was called, in his obituary in the New York Times, "the dean of the... 'hard-boiled' school of detective fiction."
Sam Spade is hired by the fragrant Miss Wonderley to track down her sister, who has eloped with a louse called Floyd Thursby. But Miss Wonderley is in fact the beautiful and treacherous Brigid O'Shaughnessy, and when Spade's partner Miles Archer is shot while on Thursby's trail, Spade finds himself both hunter and hunted: can he track down the jewel-encrusted bird, a treasure worth killing for, before the Fat Man finds him?

audiobook. It's not really to my taste. It's a waste of money to buy detective novels. I should listen to them.
评分It was love at the first chapter. Dashiell, the author, is not only a detective, but also a writer and a poet. The way he composed, paused, and waved the story will draw you into a dazzling puzzle. However, as the story grows, things could get out of control, when the protagonist is clearly the smartest person in the book. It gets boring.
评分啰嗦拖沓人物不可爱啊
评分2011.10.7 典型的美式侦探小说,硬汉,动作,lots of running around... 人物关系简单,切换明了,没有碎碎念,对白是这些美式小说的优势。看起来真的很快。悬疑多少有点单薄,但是还能接受,因为不是很拖沓,所以能很快看下去。几个小时就翻完了...
