1st edition, 1st printing (true first). 288pp. Red cloth boards (rubbed and faded at edges, some marks, generally worn). Lending sheet on front free endpaper, no other library markings. Discoloured text block edges and pages well-thumbed with occasional minor marks. In its original dust jacket (well-worn and a few nicks from edges, old interior tape repairs, minor loss at spine tips). Hard to find first edition, especially in original dust jacket, hence offering this good only copy. An excellent mystery - subtle and full of character, the trial of Carey Silence is one of the most dramatic in detective fiction. Jacket fitted with archival-quality mylar wrapper to protect & prolong its life. It is not adhered to the book or to the jacket. 12mo
