Seller's Description:
Fine in Fine jacket. Book 1st American edition, so stated., with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. In 2002 Wright / Cooper was Nominated for Library Dagger by CWA for an author whose body of work has given most pleasure. "Only one person knows that civil servant Wilhelmina "Willow" King, the rather dowdy, 38, and very clever lady who works part-time for the Department of Old Age Pension, leads quite a separate life as a coolly elegant and successful romance novelist. Investigation into the beating death of Willow's dashing boss on London's Clapham Common threatens to expose Willow's duplicity, so she decides to unmask the killer herself. Cooper handles Willow's dual roles most admirably; the conceit allows a nice dichotomy between two ways of life, two sets of characters, and two periods of time. Finely constructed and well orchestrated, and set off with careful, refined prose."--Library Journal.
