First edition 1st printing of Pelecanos' hardest to find title, Good to Very Good book, tight and apparently unread copy with very light bumping to bottom of spine, bottom corners, and with 1 inch white rub bottom back board; jacket is Very Good with the typical St. Martin's edge and corner wear which is worst at spines with some tiny chips there too, black back panel has mild rubbing with closed 1/2 inch tear top middle. Signed on the title page by Pelecanos. The second, and hardest to find, Nick Stefanos mystery (there were eventually three). Stefanos is a very hard-drinking appliance and electronics salesman in Washington D.C. (as was Pelecanos) who inadvertently stumbles into being both a bartender and an amateur P.I. after being fired from his day job.

This copy signed by Hillerman on title page with his early straight "T" signature. This is the first title in Hillerman's Navajo mysteries to feature Jim Chee.
