Mass Market Paperback. Etat : Near Fine. No Jacket. First UK Paperback Edition. Uncommon version of this title: the American version as THE RETURN OF SUMURU is much easier to find. This copy shows some creasing to the top of the book, as if it had been carried carelessly in a pocket, and has a sticker with an American price of 60c on it. Other than that, a superb copy, with minimal browning of the pages. Sumuru is Rohmer's female version of Fu Manchu, and quite an interesting character.
