Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. Book 1st edition, so stated, with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket, small wrinkle at rear panel, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. "John Marshall Tanner is closing the gap on 50 a little too rapidly--a fact made all the clearer by an upcoming college reunion. The reunion turns out to be the usual mix of memories, regrets, laughs, and love rekindled, but more germane is the case Tanner picks up while worrying about how his life stacks up to those of his peers. Former roommate Seth Hartman, long a civil-rights champion, is now an attorney in Charleston. Recently he's been receiving threatening letters from the Alliance for Southern Pride. Troubling Hartman most is his estranged son's involvement with the Alliance. Tanner agrees to help. Posing as a possible investor in the Alliance, he infiltrates the inner circle. On one level, this is standard, hard-boiled mystery fare, but Greenleaf's feeling for our common humanity gives the tale another dimension. The personal doubts Tanner expresses in the face of the upcoming reunion and the contented resignation with which he comes to regard his life as he works the case will generate a nod of recognition from most midlife readers."--Publishers Weekly.
