How Sam Spade Came to Be Hard-Boiled, part 2

Hi, everyone!  I hope you can join me over at Misterio Press today for part 2 of my series on the hard-boiled mystery genre and, specifically, The Maltese Falcon.  Today we’re talking about Dashiell Hammett’s very interesting life, the influence of his Pinkerton work, how the novel was received in its day, and more!

See you there!
