About This Item
New York, NY Hearst Corporation: Avon , 1991. Paperback First Edition Thus (1991), First Printing indicated by a complete numerical sequence. First Edition Thus (1991), First Printing indicated by a complete numerical sequence. Very Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute crease at the tip of the upper corner of the front panel; the expected light tanning to the text pages, due to aging; else flawless; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. Free of creases to the backstrip. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of any underlining, hi-lighting or marginalia or marks in the text. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A handsome, very nearly-new copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing a couple of minor, unobtrusive cosmetic flaws. Bright and Clean. Corners Sharp. Very close to "As New". NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 12mo. (6.8 x 4.25 x 0.9 inches). 340 pages. Language: English. Weight: 6.9 ounces. Mass Market Paperback. This was Ferrigno's powerful debut which portrays the colorful life of a South L.A. retired drug dealer who when accused of the murder of his disappeared ex-wife, sets off to find the truth; a journey through Newport's vile underworld. I was hooked on this book about the third paragraph when the main characters frustration about his divorce is described as feeling like throwing a fat man through a plate glass window...just to hear the noise.
