About This Item
London : Collins for The Crime Club, (1946). First edition. "Looking back on it all, I cannot believe that it happened, though I have tangible proof that it did. It seems now like a long drawn-out dream; or, more accurately, a nightmare ..." - the lives of fellow-travellers on the same coach become entangled. Crown 8vo (20cm). 192pp. Original orange cloth, lettered in black; edges spotted, but otherwise a very good sound and bright copy in the colourful dust-jacket (a design by. S. J.) - the jacket price-clipped, just lightly rubbed at extremities and a little spotted on the lower panel and flaps. Contemporary (February 1947) ownership inscription of J. P. Farnley neatly pasted over, with a related manuscript date on rear endpaper.
