The Falcon's Malteser is the first novel featuring the inept teenage private detective, Tim Diamond, and his significantly smarter younger brother and narrator, Nick Diamond. The plot is a hilarious parody of classic film noir and detective stories, centered on a mysterious object called The Falcon's Malteser. The brothers must navigate a dangerous and confusing world of criminals and international spies who are all after the item, relying entirely on Nick's brains to save them from Tim's chronic incompetence.
