What Our Customers Say...

Description

Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

A 1968 reprint of this work, which was first published in 1944.

In the original unclipped dust wrapper.

A lesser known Agatha Christie novel, the last of her books to feature the Superintendent Battle.

Contemporary reviews of the novel were overwhelmingly positive, with the Observer noting in 1944 that 'the new Agatha Christie has a deliciously prolonged and elaborate build-up, urbane and cosy like a good cigar and red leather slippers', and that Christie is 'keeping the flag of the old classic who-dun-it triumphantly flying!'.

Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding, with unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, fine. Handling marks to dust wrapper back strip and rear wrap, with light edgewear to back strip tail. Internally, firmly bound. Pages age toned due to paper type, but clean.
