Red Harvest ( 1929 ) is a novel by American writer Dashiell Hammett .

The plot follows the Op's investigation of several murders amid a labor dispute in a corrupt Montana mining town. Some of the novel was inspired by the Anaconda Road massacre , a 1920 labor dispute in the mining town of Butte, Montana .
