Description

Sam Spade is hired by the fragrant Miss Wonderley to track down her sister, who has eloped with a louse called Floyd Thursby. But Miss Wonderley is in fact the beautiful and treacherous Brigid O'Shaughnessy, and when Spade's partner Miles Archer is shot while on Thursby's trail, Spade finds himself both hunter and hunted: can he track down the jewel-encrusted bird, a treasure worth killing for, before the Fat Man finds him?

    I wish I had read the other reviews first, horrible digitization with no apparent editing

    The story was fantastic and well done. Unfortunately when converted into a digital format, there were so many errors that it detracted from the story.

    This book has so many text errors that it ruins the book. Don't buy this version.

    Looks like no one bothered to proofread this. The cost should be refunded to any purchaser. Shameful.

    Horrible version. Way too many spelling errors. I spent half my time trying to decipher the errors so I could understand the text. Spend the extra money on a better version.
