Plot Summary
"The Thin Man": The first in the delightfully comic mystery series featuring those high-class amateur sleuths, Nick and Nora Charles. While not busy with their endless rounds of cocktails and dinner parties, the wealthy and charming Nick and Nora set out to solve a seemingly unsolvable murder.| "After the Thin Man": Wealthy amateur detectives Nick and Nora Charles return in this sequel to "The Thin Man". This time they're out to solve a series of murders, while ever engaging in bubbling repartee and champagne.| "Another Thin Man": In this third entry in the popular "Thin Man" series, Nick and Nora Charles, the wisecracking, upper-crust, crime-solving duo, go to Long Island for a vacation. After a series of murders occur -- which appear to be related -- the pair set out to solve the mystery. The pair's adventure-filled investigation leads them to the lowlife world of gangsters and seedy characters. Will they survive long enough to solve the murders? (And enjoy another martini?)| "Shadow of the Thin Man": In the fourth entry of the "Thin Man" series, wherever high-class sleuths Nick and Nora Charles go, murder and mayhem follow. Such is the case, as the duo become embroiled in a perilous racetrack caper, involving gambling, gangsters, shootings -- and three dead bodies. Can the wisecracking pair solve the crimes before they become the killer's next victims?| "The Thin Man Goes Home": In this fifth entry of the "Thin Man" series, dashing Nick and Nora Charles, the high-class amateur sleuths, become entwined in a peril-filled adventure involving a spy ring, stolen paintings -- and a few dead bodies. Can the wisecracking pair solve the crimes before they become the next victims?| "Song of the Thin Man": The sixth (and final) entry of the "Thin Man" series. Here, debonair detectives Nick and Nora Charles attempt to solve a murder on a gangster-infested gambling ship. But during the investigation, other killings occur, with the sleuths -- and their young son -- eluding danger at every turn. Can the quick-witted duo solve the mystery before it's too late?
