When the gorgeous and mysterious "Miss Wonderly" walks into the shabby San Francisco office of Spade and Archer, she brings with her a story about a missing sister, a stack of cash—and enough trouble to get a man killed. Before the night is over, Sam Spade's partner is dead, shot down in a dark alley. The police think Spade pulled the trigger. And suddenly he's caught in a deadly game with a gang of thieves who will lie, cheat, and murder to possess a priceless statuette—the jewel-encrusted Maltese Falcon.
