'Dashiell Hammett is an original. He is a master of the detective
novel, yes, but also one hell of a writer' BOSTON GLOBE Dashiell
Hammett's Continental Op was the prototype for generations of
tough-guy detectives. Short, squat and as stubborn as a mule, the
Op's only enthusiasm was doing his job. In the stories in THE BIG
KNOCKOVER, the job means solving the bank heist to end all bank
heists, taking on a gang of freebooters, cleaning up a vice-ridden
hell in the desert and dealing with assorted colourful grifters
like the Dis-and-Dat Kid, Alphabet Shorty McCoy and Bluepoint
Vance.
