Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. The Campden Ruby Murder, by Adam Bliss; Rich & Cowan Ltd., London, 1934. First UK edition. Adam Bliss was the pseudonym of Robert & Eve Burkhardt, an American husband and wife team, who wrote 3 mysteries under the Adam Bliss name. This book was first published as "The… Camden Ruby Mystery" in the United States, by Barse & Co. in 1931. It was then re-issued by Grosset & Dunlap around that same time. This novel is a "locked-room mystery". It was published in the UK as "The Campden Ruby Mystery". The name change was likely due to the fact that in the UK there was a real "Lord Camden" that could have been an issue. This book, 284 pages, is in very-good condition. The dust jacket is in good condition and is now enclosed in a protective mylar wrap. This murder mystery is exceedingly scarce in any of its publications, either in the United States or the United Kingdom. Even more so in the dust jacket.
