About This Item
London : Robert Hale, (1956). First edition. Murder made to look like suicide - a common enough theme - but a suicide made to look like murder to claim the insurance? Chase in fine form with a tale set in Hollywood. Crown 8vo (20cm). 254,[ii]pp. Original black boards, blocked and lettered in red; endpapers and outer leaves very slightly spotted; text lightly tanned, but a very good copy in the pictorial dust-jacket - the jacket a little worn, marked, slightly chipped, and a little creased, with some spotting to verso - but complete and attractive still. Contemporary (1956) ownership inscription and small bookseller's label of Fogarty's of Port Elizabeth.
