About this Item
1st ed. Near fine in dust jacket, wear along edges, several short closed tears, rear panel lightly soiled. Not price clipped, $2.95 intact. Connecticut setting. Cassiday wrote many Vintage Paperbacks & Short Stories for magazines but this is his only hardcover book. he man's skull had been beaten in. He was found floating in Coldwater River by an immigrant German fishing in the stream. The only clues to his identity were a laundry mark on his shirt and the results of a chemical analysis of his stomach contents. Coldwater was a quiet commuter town where violent crime was rare. But Captain of Police James Ripperman and his small team felt the pressure as lead after lead ended in a tangle of frustration. But no sooner had the floater's identity become known than maneuvers began to force him to close the case, and Ripperman uncovered the cancerous vein of violence and lust running beneath the placid surface of the seemingly idyllic community .
