Cleveland, OH: The World Publishing Co., 1971. First Printing, First U.S. Edition. . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Creasey called this book, one of more than 600 crime-thrillers he wrote under more than 20 pseudonyms, his "first American book" because, although it was first published in England in 1957, it was largely written in the U.S. in Hollywood and in Lake Placid, NY. It features a young American, Robert Curran, who has come to England to learn about his "roots" and finds murder instead. A small, narrow chip missing from the bottom edge of front cover and top edge of text is foxed, o/w boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square, not remaindered. The price-clipped dustjacket shows a small, half-inch tear on the fold between the back panel and back flap; minor surface and edgewear. A collectable copy of a typical Creasey.
