But then a bullet-riddled corpse and a missing inventor (not to mention the attentions of a beautiful young woman) force him out of retirement and back into business. Trying to make sense of false leads, suspicious alibis and mistaken identities, Nick and Nora are thrown into a world of gangsters, hoodlums and speakeasies, where no-one can be trusted. Dashiell Hammett was credited with inventing the hardboiled crime novel, and this story of murder and mayhem in Manhattan, with its breakneck plot, snappy dialogue - and the hard-drinking, wisecracking couple Nick and Nora - is one of his most thrillingly enjoyable mysteries.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dashiell Hammett","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44958280417327,"sku":"9780141194608","price":499.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/6428\/9071\/files\/9780141194608.jpg?v=1771070447","url":"https:\/\/lunabooks.in\/products\/the-thin-man-penguin-modern-classics","provider":"Luna Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
