About this Item

First edition. 8vo. Original cloth. Dust-jacket, the correct issue with the small illustration of a bell on the spine - omitted on reprints. Near fine, no inscriptions in publisher's red cloth in VG++ price clipped dust-wrapper designed by J.Z. Atkinson, minute wear at spine tips but overall a superb example. Jacket artwork by J.Z. Atkinson. An uncommonly good first edition of this Superintendent Battle title, the white jacket notoriously prone to tarnishment. Lady Tressilian invites her ward for his annual visit at Gull's Point. He insists on bringing both his former wife and his present wife, though Lady Tressilian finds this awkward. Her old friend Treves dies, then she is murdered as well; Superintendent Battle and his nephew are called in. Seller Inventory # 84262
