The Thin Man by Dashiell Hammett is the December book for the Thursday Classic Mystery Book Club. Join in person at the Civic Center Library in the Board Room on Thursday, Dec. 18, at 2 p.m.

“Nick Charles thinks his sleuthing days are behind him when Julia Wolf, a former acquaintance, turns up dead. Thanks to some persuasion from his enchanting wife, Nora, Nick finds himself falling back into old habits and making a few polite inquiries. The prime suspect, Julia’s lover and boss Clyde Miller Wynant, has vanished without a trace. Everyone is after him, but Nick is not so sure Wynant is the culprit. And when another dubious figure bursts into their bedroom waving a loaded handgun, it seems Nick and Nora’s adventure is only just beginning.

Nick and Nora Charles are among Dashiell Hammett’s most alluring creations: a rich, glamorous couple who solve homicides in between wisecracks and martinis. At once knowing and unabashedly romantic, The Thin Man is a murder mystery that doubles as a sophisticated comedy of manners.” – the publisher
