The Dain Curse, by Dashiell Hammett
Categorized in: 52 Books/52 Weeks
Hammett’s second novel; I liked the first, Red Harvest, better. Though the prose and dialogue are a lot of fun, the plot felt too driven by the need for the book to continue and less by the characters. Perhaps the book was overplotted – I just didn’t want to continue after a while.
