About This Item
VG+ / VG. 1950 MacDonald, first UK edition. Hardcover with dust jacket. Book in great shape; jacket just has "normal" minor edge wear, typical for its age. Basis for the great John Huston film version, starring Sterling Hayden.
Synopsis
The perfect crime goes awry. The problem? Human nature. The seemingly foolproof jewel heist requires the involvement of Doc Reimenschneider, a master criminal just out of prison, an itinerant hood named Dix, and their fence, the sleazy lawyer Alonzo Emmerich. The 1949 film, directed by John Huston, featured Sam Jaffe, Jean Hagen, and Marilyn Monroe.
