Description
First US edition, first printing of ‘Dead Lions’ by Mick Herron. Published by SOHO Crime in New York, 2013. This is a near fine copy. The dust wrapper is bright and bold, with little wear to note aside light rubbing at the spine tips. It has not been price clipped and shows the original ‘US/CAN $25.95’ price. The boards, quarter-bound in black paper and terracotta, are free from notable wear, aside from some off-setting to the front panel. The text blocks a hint of spotting. Overall, this is a near fine copy of a title not published in the UK in hardback and becoming increasingly scarce to find.
The CWA Gold Dagger Award-winning British espionage novel about disgraced MI5 agents who inadvertently uncover a deadly Cold War-era legacy of sleeper cells and mythic super spies.
