Sam Spade, Nick and Nora Charles, The Continental Op. In his novels and stories, Dashiell Hammett created some of the most memorable characters--detectives, dames, and assorted miscreants--in twentieth-century fiction. It is nearly impossible to imagine modern American literature without Hammett.
Vintage Hammett features episodes from Red Harvest, The Maltese Falcon, The Dain Curse, and The Thin Man; and stories featuring the Continental Op, including "The House in Turk Street," "The Girl with the Silver Eyes," and "Flypaper." It also includes the story "Nightshade" which has not been available in over fifty years.
Vintage Readers are a perfect introduction to some of the great modern writers, presented in attractive, affordable paperback editions.
From the Trade Paperback edition.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Dashiell Hammett
Dashiell Hammett nasceu em 1894, no estado de Maryland, EUA. Começou a trabalhar aos catorze anos para ajudar a sustentar a família e em 1915, tinha então vinte e um anos, foi contratado pela Agência de Detetives Pinkerton. Este período serviu-lhe de inspiração para a escrita de policiais. A sua carreira literária iniciou-se com a publicação de contos na revista Black Mask, protagonizados desde logo pelo investigador Continental Op, um verdadeiro "duro" com vinte anos de experiência, que seria o herói do seu livro de estreia, Colheita Sangrenta, lançado em 1929. O Falcão de Malta, publicado em 1930, é a primeira obra onde surge outra das suas personagens marcantes, o detetive Sam Spade, e continua a ser até hoje o seu livro mais famoso, tendo sido frequentemente transposto para o cinema. Completam a obra essencial de Hammett os títulos A Maldição dos Dain (1929), A Chave de Cristal (1931) e O Homem Sombra (1934). Juntamente com Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett introduziu o realismo nas histórias de detetives e é considerado o pai do género hard-boiled. Faleceu em Nova Iorque a 10 de janeiro de 1961.
