The Thin Man - Dashiell Hammett

Originally published in 1933, The Thin Man is the story of respectable peoplewho are prepared to murder between drinks--and do. In Dashiell Hammett's famous crime novel, we meet one of the detective-story master's most enchanting creations, Nick and Nora Charles, a rich, glamorous couple who solve homicides in between wisecracks and martinis. At once knowing and unabashedly romantic, The Thin Man is a classic murder mystery that doubles as a sophisticated comedy of manners.
