  • FEATURING THE CHARACTER THAT INSPIRED THE AMC SERIES MONSIEUR SPADE STARRING CLIVE OWEN ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE'S 100 BEST MYSTERY AND THRILLER BOOKS OF ALL TIME Detective Sam Spade is a private eye with his own solitary code of ethics. When his partner is killed during a stakeout, he is drawn into the hunt for a fantastic treasure with a dubious provenance--a golden bird encrusted with jewels. Also on the trail are a perfumed grifter named Joel Cairo, an oversized adventurer named Gutman, and Spade's new client Brigid O'Shaughnessy, a beautiful and treacherous woman whose loyalties shift at the drop of a dime. These are the ingredients of Dashiell Hammett's coolly glittering gem of detective fiction, a novel that has haunted generations of readers. *With a new introduction by Richard Russo*

Dashiell Hammett Classic Novels Editorial Review

The Maltese Falcon is a classic and definitive entry in the "Noir" or "Hard Boiled" detective genre. The protagonist, Sam Spade, is a famous and iconic detective character. The book starts with a straightforward mystery that quickly takes unexpected turns, pulling in numerous shady characters and plots. The language of the book is simple, gritty, and straightforward, setting and maintaining the tone throughout. The book does not let the readers into Spade's thoughts, forcing them to deduce motivations and thoughts based on actions and interactions. The only downside is that the reader may not want the book to end. Overall, The Maltese Falcon is a must-read classic and worth watching the movie adaptation.
