    Bodies Piled Up

    Dashiell Hammett's CONTINENTAL OP starts with a seemingly routine hit-and-run investigation—but nothing is routine in this city’s underworld. What begins as a straightforward case spirals into a tangled web of murder, counterfeiting, and betrayal, all leading to a luxury hotel where three bodies lie in wait and danger lurks in every hallway. As the Op peels back the layers of deception, he finds himself locked in a high-stakes game with one of the West Coast’s most dangerous criminals—where a single misstep could mean the difference between justice and his own body on the pile. Sharp dialogue, grit, and suspense fuel this noir thriller from start to finish.
