Black cloth with silver lettering on spine, no names, Near Fine to Fine condition, dust jacket is in Near Fine condition, book feels unread, unopened, gift giving quality. "In 1894 the celebrated sleuth of Baker Street was at the height of his powers, but the grave allegations made to him by a certain choirmaster, John Jasper, about the 'murder' of his nephew, Edwin Drood, were to present Sherlock Holmes with a case whose tragic ramifications had no rival in Dr. Watson's chronicle of the great detective's exploits. The mystery of Edwin Drood is satisfactorily solved. A baffling time scale; the destructive effects of opium; the secrets of a family tomb; the pitiful inmate of a country asylum; the portrait of a lovely girl - these are some of the elements in a richly intriguing story of detection."
