A new edition (originally published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1936). 320pp. In red cloth-covered boards with black lettering on spine (boards gently rubbed at spine tips, mild spine crease, spine lightly sunned). Endpapers and page margins tanned, else neat and clean internally. Firmly bound. A good, vintage copy of this detective fiction novel. Georgette Heyer, an English novelist and short story writer, effectively established the historical romance genre, and its sub-genre of Regency Romances, and has remained popular among readers since the publication of her first novel, The Black Month, in 1921. Although perhaps best known (and collected) for her Regency Romances, which were written with great attention to historical detail, she also wrote thrillers and detective fiction. We have many of her works in stock, and offer generous discounts to those ordering more than one title at a time - please inquire.
