A propos de cet article

Publication: London, Herbert Jenkins Limited, 1946 Formatting: 8vo, pp. [viii], 223. Condition Report: Very Good. Original orange cloth binding remains remarkably bright and well-preserved, featuring crisp, unoxidised black tooling to the spine and the publisher's Pegasus emblem on the upper board. There is only very mild rubbing and faint bumping to the spine extremities, typical of gentle shelf wear, while the boards remain sturdy and square. The binding is tight and entirely sound with no rolling. Internally, the textblock is clean and unmarked, though the pages exhibit uniform, characteristic age-toning entirely expected given the book's age. Text block edges display mild dust-dulling and faint sporadic foxing. A very respectable copy, presented without its dust jacket. Catalogue Note: First edition, first printing of this classic mystery, clearly identified by the "First printing" statement on the copyright page alongside the iconic 'Book Production War Economy Standard' emblem. This signifies the book's compliance with the strict wartime and immediate post-war publishing restrictions in Great Britain, which necessitated the use of thinner paper stock and reduced margins. Finding first printings from this immediate post-war era in such a well-retained, vibrant original cloth binding is increasingly uncommon on the open market, as the fragile, economical materials frequently deteriorated, faded, or perished over the decades. Living a secluded life in a lonely house built upon the foundations of an ancient, ruined church, a retired Cambridge professor slowly realises he is under constant, menacing surveillance. In his growing perplexity and fear over the dreadful happenings surrounding his home, he seeks the help of Gilbert Larose, the brilliant and renowned international detective. What unfolds is a dark and intricate web of suspense and mystery, as Larose delves into the chilling secrets surrounding the isolated occupant, adding another thrilling and highly atmospheric chapter to the detective's legendary career. …
