Sobre este artículo
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1976. First edition. Fine in a fine dust jacket. (9936). Octavo, cloth backed boards. The last Lew Archer novel. "In spite of its flaws, however, the novel is one of Macdonald's most complex, and the background, both in California and Arizona, is well realized." - Pronzini and Muller, 1001 Midnights, The Aficionado's Guide to Mystery and Detective Fiction, pp. 523-524. Pederson (ed.), St. James Guide to Crime and Mystery Writers, (4th ed.), pp. 676-678.
