184pp. Blue cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to spine (dusty top edge & occasional mild spotting). In a matt dust jacket in Mystery Book Guild style (gentle shelf wear). First published by John Long in 1966. The Mystery Book Guild republished leading mystery novels at a rate of two a month, building an attractively uniform series of classic crime and thrillers. Its diamond design dust jackets are both sought after and pleasing. A little gem for lovers of vintage fiction. Some of the novels in the series are now hard to find in this or any other edition. Book covered in non-adhessive mylar wrap to archival level.
