About this book
Samuel Spade is at his desk when Effie Perine tells him a young woman named Miss Wonderly wants to see him. She comes in slowly, shy and visibly uneasy, and has trouble finding words for her request.
She tells Spade her trouble concerns her younger sister and a man the sister met in New York. Spade, polite and unhurried, tells her to begin at the start. This hard-boiled mystery opens in his San Francisco detective office.
