The Maltese Falcon (1929)
Creators: Liked Classic noir. Private detective Sam Spade is hired to search for a valuable, gem-encrusted antique in the shape of a falcon. 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?

Likedfirst up is the doomsters by Ross McDonald which is the first crime book that I've ever really liked or the first crime book that I've liked since I read daschal hammett's the Maltese Falcon when I was between 8th and 9th grade during the summer break
Lovedthe maltese falcon is a bit like that's a mcguffin it just gets people looking around for the artifact itself and it's an absolute classic of course
