Blurb
Welcome to Personville-locals call it "Poisonville"-a town so corrupt it's choking on its own blood. When the Continental Op, a hard-nosed private detective, arrives to clean things up, he plunges into a storm of gangsters, crooked politicians, and double-crossing dames. But the deeper he digs, the bloodier the harvest becomes.
With relentless pacing, razor-sharp dialogue, and a moral compass as gray as the skies over Poisonville, Red Harvest is a brutal masterpiece of American noir. This is Dashiell Hammett at his most raw and ruthless, a gritty tale of justice torn from the barrel of a gun.
If you like your heroes uncompromising and your crime fiction mean, lean, and soaked in danger-Red Harvest delivers a bulletproof classic.
