About this listen

The Maltese Falcon is the definitive masterpiece of the hard-boiled detective genre. It introduces legendary PI Sam Spade, a loner who follows his own code and the rules of the street as he zeros in on his partner’s killer and the famous jewel-encrusted bird. Humphrey Bogart immortalized the tough-guy detective in the classic 1941 film.

Critic Reviews

“The Maltese Falcon is not only probably the best detective story we have ever read, it is an exceedingly well written novel.”

(Times Literary Supplement (London))

“Dashiell Hammett…is a master of the detective novel, yes, but also one hell of a writer.”

(Boston Globe)

“As edge-of-one’s-seat captivating today as it was eighty years ago, Dashiell Hammett’s The Maltese Falcon is a classic that hard-boiled mystery buffs everywhere are sure to enjoy.”

(Midwest Book Review)

“Reader William Dufris is a one-man band, covering the entire cast of diverse characters with unbelievable ease. His shifts from tough Sam Spade to the damsel in distress to any of a host of bad guys is just short of amazing.”
