His first novel and the Red Mask mystery which started Jack Olesker on a long-career as a Hollywood producer and director. "No Place Like Home," is set in a luxury Chicago high-rise apartment building where a former national sports hero turns serial killer, terrorizing residents, and eluding police and 24-hour security measures as one murder follows another. Boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square, not remaindered. The dustjacket shows only a tiny tear near the upper corner of the front panel. No other tears, no creasing or chipping, not price-clipped. Very nice collectable copy.
