Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. AC2-A first British edition hardcover book in very good condition in very good dust jacket. Dust jacket has light discoloration, small wrinkling/shelfwear on top and 3 wrinkles on back. Book has light discoloration and light shelf wear. The light discoloration on top and bottom of pages, may be during manufacturing and not a defect. Although not marked in any way, this copy comes from the personal collection of Otto Penzler, legendary editor and founder of the Mysterious Press, an award-winning icon in the genre. 9.5"x6", 310 pages. Sébastien Japrisot was a French author, screenwriter and film director. His pseudonym was an anagram of Jean-Baptiste Rossi, his real name. Satisfaction Guaranteed. A young man staggers onto a beach at sunset, clutching the spreading stain on his shirt. But who shot him? And on what beach? Was it Emma, the bride on her honeymoon on the Atlantic coast near La Rochelle? Was it Belinda, the Niçoise whore in a snug little brothel on the other side of the peninsula? Or Zozo, Belinda's colleague? Or Caroline, the prim schoolteacher? Or the manicurist, Frou-Frou, who rose through pornographic movies to become a Hollywood star? Or the exotic Yoko, part Chilean, part Japanese? Or Toledo, the US Army nurse from Ohio? All the evidence expands and conflicts. And Marie-Martine, the glacial lawyer who records the evidence of these women, seems also to be involved-as are the gamekeeper, the blacksmith, and the military police, recurrent key players in a revolving and gathering case of witnesses.
