Presents April Smith's "Good Morning, Killer: An Ana Grey Mystery". In many ways, her best book. "While many authors who feature the same protagonist in all their mysteries simply serve up the same character in different scenarios in each new outing, April Smith expertly illuminates aspects of her heroine's psychological life and devotion to justice that deepen our understanding about who she is: A complicated, brave, multi-dimensional woman it is a pleasure to meet in this engrossing and powerful novel" (Jane Adams) . An absolute "must-have" title for April Smith collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by April Smith. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant American novelists of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER APRIL SMITH TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 0375412409.
