Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. Book 1st ed. Light soiling at edges else near fine in dust jacket. Detective chief Inspector Wilfred Dover. Dovert is beginning to wonder (as he periodically does) if his talents aren't wasted in the Civil Service. A position as Chief Security Officer of a large, prosperous corporation has been advertised and the Inspector has made up his mind to apply. All he needs is to bring his latest case to a brilliant conclusion (preferably with lots of press and television coverage) and the job is surely his. Unfortunately, the case involves the body of a young woman found in an exclusive residential area and even the victim's identity isn't known. Given that the case is complicated and that the possible suspects are the kind of people who know their legal rights, the local police have been happy to turn it over to Scotland Yard. They weren't counting on getting landed with Dover, of course. How could they have known?
