Hardback. Condition: Very Good. When the destination sign in Scrooge's train reads Heat Death instead of Heathrow, when his dead partner Marley's face appears inexplicably as a talking head in a department store TV, and when the street lights outside his luxurious London flat begin acting strangely, it's a sign of a bad night to come.
