About This Item
London: Andre Deutsch Limited, 1982. First edition, English Issue. 8vo, publisher's original navy cloth, the spine lettered in gilt, and with the fully illustrated and colour decorated dustjacket. 175 pp. A very fine copy indeed, as pristine FIRST EDITION OF THIS FINE SPENSER NOVEL SET IN LONDON. "Once again Robert Parker has created an alarmingly realistic plot full of firecracker wit and understated violence. Spenser, philosopher-detective, with skill in the kitchen as well as the rough house, is a hero endowed with far more than the stereotype and, with the attractive Susan Silverman waiting for him in Boston, he just has to come back alive." This, the fifth Spenser novel takes place in London and across the continent.
