Top+fore-edges bright and clean; contents bright,tight and pristine - no dog-ear reading creases to any pages' corners - an unread copy? Bright,clean,sharp-cornered,maroon paper-covered boards with bright,crisp, stamped white ink letters to spine/backstrip and immaculate white eps.UK,12mo HB+dw/dj,1st edn,1-286pp [paginated] includes 15 chapters,plus [unpaginated] half-title+title pages,a dedication,quotation,b/w floor plan illus,and 10pp blanks to rear. A wonderfully entertaining homage both to the Golden Age of English murder mysteries and to its most brilliant practitioner. [Agatha Christie - The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. - see my book listing rja1048.] Boxing Day,circa 1935.A snowed-in manor on the very edge of Dartmoor.A Christmas house-party.And overhead,in the attic,the dead body of Raymond Gentry,gossip columnist and blackmailer shot through the heart.But the attic door is locked from the inside, its sole window is traversed by thick iron bars and,naturally,there is no sign of a murderer or a murder weapon.Fortunately (though,for the murderer,unfortunately),one of the guests is the formidable Evadne Mount,the bestselling author of countless classic whodunits.In fact,were she not its presiding sleuth,'The Act of Roger Murgatroyd' is exactly the type of whodunit she herself might have written. . . Gilbert Adair's most lucid and Clue-dic novel to date,'The Act of Roger Murgatroyd' is a tour de force. Since April 2013,again in March 2015,and in this year too,the UK Post Office has altered it's Pricing in Proportion template,altering its prices,weight allowances,dimensions and lowered its compensation rates too! So,please contact rpaxtonden@blueyonder.co.uk ,because of the lighter weight/value of this item,for correct,insured shipping/P+p quotes - particularly ALL overseas buyers - BEFORE ordering through the order page!
