What Our Customers Say...

Description

Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

The very scarce facsimile reissue of the 1937 first edition (which is vanishingly scarce). 

With the publisher's original unclipped dust wrapper. 

This unique detective novel poses to be a true story, with the author Ernest Borneman writing as Cameron McCabe, a 38-year-old Scotsman who writes about a crucial period of his life, during which several people close to him are murdered. 

The identity of the author was a mystery itself, as Gollancz publishing house knew nothing about a Cameron McCabe and, upon releasing this reissue, advertised for his heirs and placed the royalties in a trust fund.

Condition

In the original cloth binding. With the original unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, very smart, with marks to the spine caused by tape and minor bumping to the extremities. Dust wrapper is excellent, with minimal edge wear. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean, with only minor tape marks to the pastedowns.

Very Good Indeed
