About This Item
New York: Simon & Schuster, 2005. First Edition. . Hardcover. Fine/Fine. The fourth novel in Dunning's bestselling bibliomystery series featuring Cliff Janeway, Denver bookseller and former cop. This time around, Janeway is asked to check on a woman friend who is sitting in a cell in a Colorado jail, accused of murdering her husband, a book collector. Janeway doesn't turn away friends in need of help and when there's a house-ful of books, he's already on his way into the middle of an unexpectedly complex and dangerous situation. Boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square, not remaindered. The dustjacket is near perfect, no tears, no creasing, chipping or bumping. Not price-clipped. A collectable copy.
