Review

...the Continental Op features in seven superb stories in this collection. Please, dear reader, I beg you, buy this book and treat yourself to the work of a true master of the crime genre. (Vincent Banville IRISH TIMES)

Orion's magnificent Crime Masterworks series ...has collected seven of the finest Continental Op short stories in a single volume... It is a magnificent collection, marking year zero in the hard-boiled school of crime fiction... Hugely recommended. (BURTON EVENING MAIL)

'Some of the best examples of Hammett's work, painting a bleak picture of an American society warped by brutality, greed and treachery.' (WESTERN DAILY PRESS)
