Sobre este artículo
London: Macmillan, 1987. First edition. Hardback. Fine/Fine. 8" by 5.5". None. An excellent first UK edition of Sue Grafton's fourth novel in her celebrated 'alphabet series'. This first UK edition of celebrated crime and mystery author Sue Grafton's novel 'D Is For Deadbeat' is the fourth book in her award-winning 'alphabet series' following the hero of those novels, private investigator Kinsey Millhone, as she is tasked with finding someone who turns out to be dead, becoming embroiled in the not so cut and dry death of an ex-con. Grafton achieved great success with her mystery writing, reminiscent of hard-boiled detective fiction, winning several Anthony Awards and a Cartier Dagger from the British Crime Writers' Association in 2004 honouring a lifetime achievement. First UK edition in clipped dustwrapper. Cunning and clever, Grafton's 'D Is For Deadbeat' forces her hero to confront some messy truths in both the case and herself. In the publisher's original binding with clipped dustwrapper. Externally, very smart, with only some very minor shelf wear to the head and tail of the spine. The clipped dustwrapper is generally very smart, with some minor shelf wear to the head and tail of the spine and extremities. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean, with age-toning. Fine
