About this product

Product Information

Short, thick-bodied, mulishly stubborn, and indifferent to physical pain, Dashiell Hammett's Continental Op was the prototype for generations of tough-guy detectives. He is also the hero of most of the nine stories in this volume. The Op's one enthusiasm is doing his job, and in The Big Knockover the jobs entail taking on a gang of modern-day freebooters, a vice-ridden hell's acre in the Arizona desert, and the bank job to end all bank jobs, along with such assorted grifters as Babe McCloor, Bluepoint Vance, Alphabet Shorty McCoy, and the Dis-and-Dat Kid.

    It is detective genre from the time of The Maltese Falcon and very rough and tumble stories that take place in San Francisco and SF Chinatown etc

    Gritty fantastically typical Dashiel Hammett text. Fabulously larcenous characters . I’m loving to read again after 30 years.
