About This Item
London: Chatto & Windus, 1991. 1st. hardback. Near fine, 1st edition, signed on title page, unclipped d/j (v.g. in protective sleeve); boards good, text block firm, pages unmarked; just a little sunning.. 8vo (230 x 150 / 9"" x 6""). 6th and final volume of the Anna Lee series; When her boss at Brierly Security assigns her a case--involving pilfered designer sweaters--that will take her to the States, Lee soon finds herself embroiled in a depressing and dangerous family drama. Is the designer's missing teenage daughter involved with a paedophile, or has she just run off to marry a much older man? What connection does this man have to the stolen merchandise and to the designer's husband? The Florida Keys and a handsome U.S. operative give Anna her first blissful taste of the sunny, fog-free New World even as she handily attempts to answer these questions and dodge the bullets that seem to her so quintessentially American. Nominated for the Edgar Award for best novel.
