When a damsel in distress explains the trouble she is in, Detective Sam Spade knows something is wrong with the story, but he and his partner take the case anyway. The plot thickens quickly as murder, betrayal, and shady characters mix their way into the adventure. Does Spade have what it takes to figure out the truth?
An American classic, I am wondering if this is the first detective noir story. It certainly has all the elements if the genre. It was an interesting read, full of twists, and the protagonist is certainly unique. Well done overall, though hard to read in places.
