Summary

Summary

One of the Crime Writers Association Top 100 Crime Novels of All Times

Detective-story master Dashiell Hammett gives us yet another unforgettable book in Red Harvest.

When the last honest citizen of Poisonville was murdered, the Continental Op stayed on to punish the guilty—even if that meant taking on an entire town.

Red Harvest is more than a superb crime novel: it is a classic exploration of corruption and violence in the American grain.

“[A] first-rate noir crime novel…a classic case of good cop versus bad cop, and there’s no question where Continental Op comes in.” Crime Reads
