About This Item
New York: Frank-Maurice, Inc.. Very Good+ in Very Good dj. 1926. First American Edition. Hardcover. NOISBN . [light shelfwear, spine very slightly turned; jacket moderately rubbed, 1-1/2" irregular piece missing from bottom of spine, light soiling to rear panel]. "Henry Stafford, well-known English prince of finance, wealthy, studious, precise to a fault, disappears into thin air somewhere between his home and the Liverpool Station on his way to his office -- leaving a young and exceedingly lovely wife behind. Mystery follows mystery, each becoming more baffling than the last. And it is not until the very last pages of the book that the reader has the slightest idea of what really did happen to Stafford, and why." (No peeking, now.) Very uncommon. .
