Publisher's Synopsis
A new collection of crime stories from the legendary hard-boiled writer Dashiell Hammett. The author of classic novels The Thin Man (1934) and The Maltese Falcon (1938), Hammett has been called 'a master of the detective novel, yes, but also one hell of a writer' (The Boston Globe). This new collection, The Hunter and Other Stories, includes several never-before-published short stories, and, like the screen stories from Return of the Thin Man, the pieces here read as novellas - rich in both story and character - that no Hammett fan should do without.
