[Crime/espionage] SIGNED FIRST EDITION, first impression. Octavo (24 x 16cm), pp.410 [2]. Pictorial endpapers. SIGNED by the author in black ink to title page.

Minor edge wear, a little pushed at extremities. Near fine. Harry Pendel is the best known tailor in Panama and is hired by all the top brass, but his past is a well hidden secret - until the British secret agent Andrew Osnard turns up.
