About This Item
New York: Dodd, Mead & Co., 1980. First Edition, First Printing. . Hardcover. Near Fine/Fine. Valin's first novel and the first novel in his highly-praised mystery-crime series featuring Cincinnati private detective Harry Stoner, this time looking for a sixteen-year-old runaway girl who may, or may not, have runaway, who may, or may not, have disappeared. Pages 47-52 have light, dime-sized stain near top edge, o/w text and boards are clean and unmarked, tight and square; the dustjacket is near perfect with perhaps a touch of wear at the top of the spine, no tears or chipping, no creases, not price-clipped. A very nice, collectable copy
