1 The Maltese Falcon Hammett, Dashiell
Very Good. 
Paperback. Softcover 1st Vintage Crime / Black Lizard edition 1992. Superclean; no marks or creases; pages bright; binding tight. Only light wear. 217 pages. Language: English. Cover photo by Axel Crieger. 'Mystery novel by Dashiell Hammett, generally considered his finest work. It originally appeared as a serial in Black Mask magazine in 1929 and was published in book form the next year. The novel's sustained tension is created by vivid scenes and by the pace and spareness of the author's style. The other major attraction of The Maltese Falcon is its colorful cast of characters; they include the antiheroic detective Sam Spade; Brigid O'Shaughnessy, a deceptive beauty; Joel Cairo, an effete Levantine whose gun gives him courage; the very fat and jovial but sinister Casper Gutman; and Gutman's gunsel Wilmer, eager to be feared. All of them are looking for the Maltese falcon, a fabulously valuable 16th-century artifact.'--The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature.
