Near Fine. No Jacket. Signed by Author The first Charlie Resnick mystery. First Owl Book edition, first printing. Very light shelfwear. Signed by the author on the title page. Size: 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall.
These books staring Resnick are a great insight into English policing and generally life over there. As a brit I fully understand the situation but would highly recommend any of them in the series to my US friends. Good story line and always well written. Keeps you going to the end.
