Dashiell Hammett is the creator of the unique "hard-boiled detective" genre, which soon became a classic in the canon of American literature.

Diamonds are stolen from a prominent San Francisco family, and Hammett's beloved character, never named by the author but modeled after a real detective from the famed Pinkerton Detective Agency, is tasked with investigating the theft.

The disappearance of the jewels is only the first link in a chain of extremely strange events. The man who reported the theft commits suicide, a suicide that seems dubious. His daughter has a host of bad habits and a penchant for religious cults, and to top it all off, people in her circle are dying one after another. Is this girl truly the victim of a family curse? Or is the truth far less supernatural, but far more dangerous?
