260pp. Quarter bound in brown cloth over beige paper-covered boards, silver titles on spine. Bumped spine ends. Sun faded top and bottom board and text block edges. Page margins starting to tan. Internally neat, clean, bright and tight. Dust jacket has some shelf wear, crease to rear bottom edge, curling to edges, mirrors book damage, price unclipped. 8vo. Debut novel which brings to life the seductive, ever-shifting balance between good and evil, and our horrified yet mesmeric fascination with violent brutality.
