This,the UK 2nd print.]VG.No owner inscrptn,though a previous bookseller's black ink shop/business stamp to reverse of front cover with an inked decimal price within it.Author's neat handwritten black ink presentation signature (and underscore) - without any dedication - to middle of title page.Bright,clean,colour pictorial artwork illustrated front cover with b/w and pale blue lettering to same,a concave red spine with slightly discoloured(?) white/ yellow(?) letters and possible reading(?) crease, rear cover lightly dulled(?) with story blurb and a longitudinal author's b/w portrait photograph; with negligible shelf-wear, bumping,creasing to edges and corners - no nicks,tears or splits.All edges aged/toned but no foxing/spotting; contents tight and clean but with page-edge toning - no dog-ear reading creases to any pages' corners,could appear unread,apart from my own collation.Hard to discern definite reading creases to spine - other than possibly those of the act of opening the book to view author's signature.
Described hard but fairly and honestly.
'He heard a crack of sound behind him.He spun round and saw he man,arm raised,hammer poised.He tried to protect himself but the weapon crashed on to his skull . . .'
- the start of a long train of violent death and malicious destruction at a famous printing works.
And the start,too,of a harrowing,incredibly puzzling case for 'Handsome' West of the Yard.
