Edges of boards just a little rubbed and dulled, a few small, white spots to the cloth, faint partial toning to the free end-papers. An excellent copy in the lightly-spotted dust wrapper jacket with a tape repair to the verso of the spine panel at the head of the spine.

Sinopsis
Cover Her Face is the debut 1962 crime novel of P. D. James. It details the investigations by her poetry-writing detective Adam Dalgliesh into the death of a young, ambitious maid, surrounded by a family which has reasons to want her gone - or dead. The title is taken from a passage from John Webster's The Duchess of Malfi: "Cover her face. Mine eyes dazzle; she died young."
