What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce, With Dustwrapper
The second printing of the very scarce first US edition of Christie's novel, which was first published the year prior in the UK.
In the publisher's original clipped dust wrapper.
Christie's thrilling mystery follows the narrator Mark Easterbrook as he investigates a list of names and the death of a Catholic Priest. With a small appearance from Christie's novelist detective Ariadne Oliver.
This novel is notable among Christie's books as it is credited with having saved at least two lives, after readers recognised the symptoms of thallium poisoning from the description in the book.
