London: Heinemann, 1939. 1st. hardback. Good, 1st edition, missing d/j, blue boards (spine creased and torn), red spine titling, text block firm, pages unmarked (some browning at edges).. 12mo (190 x 130 / 7_"" x 5""). Once a lecturer in medieval French, now a confidential agent, D is a scarred stranger in a seemingly casual England, sent on a mission to buy coal at any price. Initially, this seems to be a matter of straightforward negotiation, but soon, implicated in murder, accused of possessing false documents and theft, held responsible for the death of a young woman, D becomes a hunted man, tormented by allegiances, doubts and the love of others.
