The game is afoot! I focus on modern first edition, first printings, but have been lately finding first editions, later printings of older novels in my inventory. I'm also highlighting a lot of signed books that I've found. I will also gladly search for and offer well-priced books of all kinds. If there's something you'd love to have, either send me a message here or go to https://cases.sherlockjoes.com and Open a Case!
First line
As the plane left the Madrid airport, Charles Martyn, PhD, age sixty-two, author of A Last Look at the American Novel-used (as a reviewer of the third edition noted) "in virtually every North American college or university where the department chair has not written a similar, but inferior, book"-told Susan, his second wife, that the first thing they would see when they landed on the island of Ibiza would be windmills.
From the rear cover
Charles Martyn, PhD, age 60, author of a classic work of literary criticism, is on his second trip to Ibiza - this time with his new wife Susan - searching for his artist son Led. Martyn muses that the first visit was "ruined, of course, eventually. Everything he had done was ruined eventually...except Susan. Harriet had gone from his life...and the end had started on Ibiza". Moving through the search for Led, the novel takes readers through unpredictable twists and turns in plot that keep them guessing about Led's whereabouts until the final scene of the story. Greene reveals in Martyn's character a psychological depth that gives this book an unsurpassed literary quality.
