London: Piatkus, 1979. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. The first hardcover edition. Inscribed by Dean Koontz on the title page: "To Gary, If you're mad enough to buy the other two Nichols hardcovers I guess you deserve this one gratis. Starts a bit slow, but then moves like an express train, or so one critic wrote. It is my belief he merely suffered a small stroke at the beginning and needed a few chapters to get his wits back. As ever, Dean R. Koontz alias Leigh Nichols". The American owner of a Japanese nightclub meets a fellow expatriate who helps uncover the terrible truth about her past. Octavo. Original burgundy cloth binding, with gilt titles. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket.
