Now for the first time ever in one volume, all twenty-eight stories and two serialized novels starring the Continental Op--one of the greatest characters in storied history of detective fiction. Dashiell Hammett is the father of modern hard-boiled detective stories. His legendary works have been lauded for almost one hundred years by fans, and his novel The Maltese Falcon was adapted into a classic film starring Humphrey Bogart. One of Dashiell Hammett's most memorable characters, the Continental Op made his debut in Black Mask magazine on October 1, 1923, narrating the first of twenty-eight stories and two novels that would change forever the face of detective fiction. The Op is a tough, wry, unglamorous gumshoe who has inspired a following that is both global and enduring. He has been published in periodicals, paperback digests, and short story collections, but until now, he has never, in all his ninety-two years, had the whole of his exploits contained in one book. The book features all twenty-eight of the original standalone Continental Op stories, the original serialized versions of Red Harvest and The Dain Curse, and previously unpublished material. This anthology of Continental Op stories is the only complete, one-volume work of its kind.Binding Type: Paperback

They were cute and stayed on for days!
Color: Set B:3 gold+3 silver
These face sparkle tattoos are great! If you apply them right, they can last several days.
My first try, I got the entire tattoo wet all at once. It slid around and it ended up crooked. And because I couldn’t apply pressure to the entire area, some of the spots came off fairly easy.
My second attempt was much better. I started on my nose area and then did one cheek at a time, holding it firmly in place the entire time. It was straight and everything stayed on until days later whenI used makeup remover to take it off.
I really love these. I wore them for the holidays and felt fun and festive. I WILL buy them again!

Worth it!
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
Great product. Great price. Used for myself and a friend for her first 5k race. I also let me 3yr old daughter wear some for her 1 mile fun run. They lasted throughout the day/race. My recommendation if you buy. Cut the single piece into 3 separate. Nose, one for each side and apply in 3 separate sections. It takes a touch longer BUT it is easier to apply. Especially if your face is smaller and it’s easier to handle.

Rave Freckles!
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
I got these for a Rave. They were very cute once I figured out the best way to put them on. I had to go through 2 before I figured it out. They stayed on well (as well as any temp tattoo can). If you have trouble getting them off, just get some facial oil cleanser! They were cute and I got lots of compliments.

Easy application
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
Lasts all day. Is a bit sticky to the touch once applied (which actually helps keep my glasses from slipping). Fairly easy to remove with some oil and a cloth, didn't try removal wipes that come with them.
