Sobre o autor

In his obituary in The New York Times, Dashiell Hammett (1894–1961) was described as “the dean of the… ‘hard-boiled’ school of detective fiction.”

Hammett is remembered for writing some of the seminal novels of crime fiction: Red Harvest, The Dain Curse, The Glass Key, The Thin Man, and The Maltese Falcon.

Hammett began writing the Continental Op stories in 1923 and continued writing them until 1930. He wrote thirty-six Continental Op stories in all.
