£235.00

First edition, first printing. Published by Jonathan Cape in London, 1951. A very good (or better) copy. Some off-setting to the endpapers with a couple of small stains – also to the page block. It has not been price clipped and is near fine. The boards are free from foxing, though with a moderate spot of toning to the top edge. Overall, this is a very good copy.
It features Christie’s Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot, who makes a very late appearance in the final third of the novel. The emphasis on espionage in the early part of the story relates it to Christie’s international adventures (such as They Came to Baghdad) and to the Tommy and Tuppence stories.
