Creeping Siamese and Other Stories: Collected Case Files of the Continental Op: The Later Years, Volume 1 (The Complete Continental Op)

Whether chasing hoodlums or solving impossible murders, Dashiell Hammettâ€™s Continental Op is one of the toughest detectives in the history of crime fiction

The Continental Op is going over his expense reports when a raw-boned man staggers through the door of his office, stretches out his arms, and dies. As the stranger falls to the floor, he utters a final word: Hell. Itâ€™s apt, because this manâ€™s death will drag the Op right into the inferno. The contents of the manâ€™s pockets are enough to send the Op off in search of his identity, his connection to San Francisco, and the treacherous underworld dealings of both the victim and his killers.
Â
The Continental Op made his name taking punches and dodging bullets, but unraveling â€œThe Creeping Siameseâ€ is the kind of mystery that will baffle even him. This story, along with â€œThe Big Knock-Overâ€ and â€œ$106,000 Blood Money,â€ is a testament to the enduring genius of Dashiell Hammett.
