The Godwulf Manuscript
by Parker, Robert B
The first of Robert B. Parker's Spenser Series. Private Investigator Spenser is hired by an unnamed university in Boston to track down a stolen illuminated manuscript from the Middle Ages. The head of a student group seemingly tied to the theft is murdered, and a blond co-ed seems responsible, although Spenser knows there's more to the murder and the theft. The search for the manuscript and the killer uncovers criminal activity within a radical student group, and even after the manuscript is returned the murders continue. Spenser knows that he himself is in danger if he doesn't solve the case.
First Edition Identification
The Godwulf Manscript was published by Houghton Mifflin Company, Boston in 1974. The original dust jacket, designed by Paul Bacon, has $5.95 price on the front flap. First printings have ‘First Printing c’ on the copyright page.
