How other great detectives would solve the case of the Maltese Falcon
A series I do sometimes.
Poirot: He would not take the case from Brigid because once Poirot has been lied to, he finds it very difficult to believe the liar a second time.  He would not take the case from Joel Cairo because Poirot is not a common jewel thief.  He would not take the case from Gutman because Poirot does not appreciate being threatened with guns by underage hooligans.  Despite saying all these things, he finds himself repeatedly kidnapped and instructed to find the bird, which he determines easily is a fake because anyone who has ever handled jewelry knows it is not perfectly smooth.  Let us hope for all involved that Hastings did not get killed like Miles Archer did, or they would all be facing hell’s fury.
Miss Fisher: Let’s get this out of the way first- who is she supposed to sleep with here?  Theoretically any of these criminals could be bisexual, but look me in the eye and honestly tell me they’re her type.  Anyway, she can’t help but get a little excited at such a grand adventure, but not being blinded by the fog of lust, she can see that none of these people should be trusted.  She installs the fake falcon as a charming statement piece in her parlor, and Jack arrests Gutman and Cairo frantically clawing at a piece of tacky sculpture.  Again, let’s hope Dot didn’t go the way of Archer or there would be blood.  (She wouldn’t- Dot is much more cautious than Archer, or Hastings for that matter.)
Dale Cooper: They’d never find the falcon.  This is not intended as a slight against Cooper- he’s a clever and hardworking fellow- but between the falcon’s already convoluted journey and Cooper’s personal bad luck and eccentric methods of determining who to question, this is not a case that’s getting wrapped up neatly.  The whole story would be spent ping-ponging between potential falcon havers as they try to kill each other for unrelated reasons, and if Cooper is lucky, he’ll survive to say that maybe the real falcon was the greed in the hearts of men.
Sam Vimes: With Vimes’s luck, the falcon will probably be cursed.  Not just figuratively, but honest-to-the-gods cursed.  He’s essentially trying to save the thieves from themselves here, not that they’re making it easy for him.  Brigid at least figures out pretty early that he’s happily married and not the cheating type, and so portrays herself as a hard-luck girl who just wants to disentangle herself from a mess.  By the time she gets actually physically possessed by the spirit of the falcon, she’s only too happy to be arrested.
Philip Marlowe: Marlowe’s thoughts on Joel Cairo and Wilmer would probably be rather snide and poorly primed for aging, but not being a bully like Spade he wouldn’t be looking for opportunities to beat them up.  Brigid would prompt a several page essay on the different categories of redheads, at the end of which he would decide she was one of the shifty ones.  Most of the book is a series of long conversations on the history of art and literature with Gutman, who is pleased to have finally found a man with whom he can trade eloquent speeches.
Kinsey Millhone: Kinsey was hired by the family of the slain Russian art dealer to find the falcon, and from there on she finds herself being followed by the strangest sort of people.  Brigid appeals to her as one clever girl to another, and suggests they team up in their search before any of the professional slimeballs can get their hands on it.  Kinsey is really sad to realize Brigid has been playing her because she thought she’d found a friend, but hey, that’s life when you’re Kinsey Millhone.
Miss Marple: Joel Cairo was a “dear friend” of one of her grand-nephews, so she invites him over for tea and scones.  They chatter together about innocuous old lady things like world traveling and antiques, and once she figures out his profession might be larcenous, she plants the seed in his head that she would be happy to look out for any pretty little bird statues she sees in shop windows.  She has a very similar conversation with Gutman, who is delighted to meet someone who already knows that odd little story about the King of Spain and his lost falcon.  Wilmer thinks she’s a nosy old broad but his patron doesn’t want him beating up an old lady, so what can he do?  She knows everything in a matter of hours.
