Lu par Mark Nelson

(4.4 étoiles; 39 critiques)

A supposed family curse. Stolen diamonds. Drugs and a religious cult. The Continental Op has his hands full while again the bodies pile up and the truth is buried beneath a mountain of lies. The Dain Curse is the second Dashiell Hammett novel featuring his iconic hard-boiled private detective, the Continental Op. - Summary by The Narrator (7 hr 9 min)

Too complex!

I could barely follow this.

The plot is beside the point.


(5 étoiles)

The language, the characters, the observations, the smart-aleck banter are what's important. The plot is secondary. Excellent reader!
