Critiques
Excellent
Frank Bowden
This might not be Hammett's best but what a story. So many twists and turns. Excellent Reader!
it's alright
A LibriVox Listener
The story is okay. Mark Nelson, as always, excelled as a narrator.
Kath
Good reader! Interesting all the way but a bit complicated to follow
Great reader. Story is long and will challenge.

Too complex!
Paul Busman
I could barely follow this.
Mark Nelson is great
Vivek
perfectly read
The plot is beside the point.
Edmund Lowe
The language, the characters, the observations, the smart-aleck banter are what's important. The plot is secondary. Excellent reader!
