Description:
192 pages. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's quarter grey cloth with gilt lettering to spine over white boards in original pictorial wrappers. First edition. Laura Di Palma, rising young star in San Francisco's high-powered law circles, has escaped to the country with her battered and taciturn lover, Hal, to take stock of her life. There her former lover, private detective Sandy Arkelett, shows up with the disturbing, emotional case of a young woman's suicide -- which may have been encouraged by her husband. As confused lives and twisted motives swirl around her, Laura discovers that morality and honesty are often at odds with each other, and may have nothing to do with the truth. Condition: Some rippled pages else a very good copy in a near fine jacket.
