Join us for a discussion of "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" by the mysterious author B. Traven.
Three men down on their luck strike out to find gold in the mountains of Mexico. Will they find their fortunes? Probably not or else it would be a boring book.
While this one isn't exactly crime fiction, we think it offers a lot of the hardboiled and noir elements that crime fiction fans will enjoy.
