Description
A first edition, first printing published by The Bodley Head John Lane in 1924. A good copy, with first issue with “First published in 1924” to the copyright page. Publisher’s tan cloth stamped in brown on front and spine – which is darkened and has been expertly laid on. One blank leaf, 3 leaves, 310 pages without adverts and endpapers refreshed. Fore and bottom page edges uncut as called for. Browning to the pages – some spotting internally – no inscriptions. The rare fourth novel written by Dame Agatha and an affordable copy given its faults.
