Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Novel based on a true story. This is a worn 1st of this scarce mystery. The book's spine is mildly cracked and loose but all pages are still bound in. Pages are lightly toned. They also have occasional spots of foxing or light smudges. The book's red cloth covers have a few dar…k spots but the red cloth is not very soiled. The spine is a bit faded. Cover corners are not bumped but there is significant wear to cover and spine edges and corner tips (to the boards). There is also a bit of soiling to the outer page edges, especially on the book's top and bottom. Although we indicated that the book's dust jacket is not present, the back half of the book's original dust jacket is laid in. It is fairly soiled and tattered.
