About This Item
New York: Pleasure Boat Studio: A Literary Press, 2009. First Printing, First U.S. Edition. . Trade Paperback. Fine to Very Fine/Issued Without Jacket. Advanced Reading Copy of a bibliomystery by the award-winning mystery writer Frimansson, considered Sweden's premier author of psychological thrillers. This novel features Tobias, a mystery writer, who must return to the family farm after his father was incapcitated after a fall. Tobias resents his father's judgmental attitude but finds his father's young wife, Sabina, hard to resist. At the same time, Ingelize, who runs a nearby riding school, finds Tobia irresistible. Rural life becomes claustrophobic for Tobias; then, before he can leave, death strikes and chaos ensues. Translation by Laura A. Wideburg. Text is clean and unmarked, tight and square; pictorial wrappers show a touch of surface and edgewear; publisher's material laid-in. A collectable copy.
