About This Item
Gollancz, 1976. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. The interior of the book is crisp and clean, with no marks, wear or signatures. The red cover is bright, with minor wear at tips and corners. The gilt spine lettering is still bright. The dust jacket is not price-clipped, and is also in very good condition, with slight darkening to the spine and minor wear along the edges, but no rips, tears or folds. A very nice copy. The jacket is now in a protective mylar cover. Synopsis: Mary Hazelwood, an attractive student at the University of California, seems to have vanished. With a man, undoubtedly, most of her friends assume; and one of them had overheard her making a date with someone named John. But which John? Anyway, no one appears to be worrying. Except Mervyn Gray, a teacher at the university. He had very good reason to feel concerned. He has found Mary's body in the boot of his car, and the murder weapon planted in his room." Note: Other ABE entries have noted that this book was actually written by Jack Vance, well-known for his science fiction titles
