Sobre este artículo
503 p. Minor shelfwear [top edges were missed in scanning, but are in similar state as bottom edges] and a few pages have been accidentally dog-eared, otherwise Near Fine and obviously never been read.
The author notes that she has set the story in an imaginary locale in the real-life east coast of Norfolk, between Cromer and Great Yarmouth.
Among her many accomplishments, P.D. James "entered the Home Office as Principal, working first in the Police Department concerned with the forensic science service and later in the Criminal Policy Department ... has twice been the winner of the Silver dagger Award of the Crime Writers' Association and in 1987 was awarded the Diamond Dagger Award for services to crime writing."
From back cover:
A serial killer of women is on the loose in a remote area of the Norfolk coast.
Overshadowing the bleak landscape and the lives of the local community is the Larksoken nuclear power station, run by the charismatic Alex Mair. Commander Adam Dalgliesh, who is staying at his aunt's converted windmill, becomes involved in the hunt for the murderer, a search that implicates him in the concerns and dangerous secrets of the headland community. And then one moonlit night it becomes chillingly apparent that the mass murderer isn't the only killer at work in Larksoken.
May require small amount of extra shipping due to thickness of book.
