Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 244 pages. Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's quarter green cloth with black lettering to spine over black boards in original pictorial jacket. First American edition. George Gideon, Commander of London's Criminal Investigation Department, came home one evening to greet his wife, Kate, with news that delighted her. "I'm going to take you New York." George! When! "Next Tuesday. You wished you'd had more notice, I know. But I didn't dare say a word before in case it fell through. There's the International Office Conference in Washington in a couple of weeks, and I thought I might have to fly over just for that. Now I'm going to consult with Nielsen in New York about a job that's been worrying us on both sides, then go on to Washington. Both of the Gideons were please by the prospect of the trip, but for Gideon it meant leaving problems, including that of a particularly unpleasant murderer, in the hands of his assistant Lemaitre. Gideon wasn't sure if Lemaitre would be able to handle the problems on his own, but it was a chance that had to be taken - and an opportunity for the ambitious assistant to prove what he could do. The Gideons sailed, and even the trip over was eventful, for murder followed them aboard the ship. The many Gideon fans in the United States will be delighted to have one of their favorite policemen pay a visit to their shores.
