Sobre este artículo
New York: William Morrow & Co., 1936. First edition. A few finger marks to front cover, a nearly fine copy in an about very good dust jacket with chipping along lower edge, corners, rubbing to folds and spine ends. (11606). Octavo, pp. [1-6] [1-2] 3-303 [304-306: blank], original black cloth, front and spine stamped in light green, top edge stained green. The author's second mystery novel. Features newspaperman Robin Bishop. "Between 1936 and 1946, Homes published 12 detective and suspense novels set primarily in the valleys and foothills of north-central California. Each is distinguished by clever plotting, semi-hard-boiled realism, fast-paced action, witty and remarkably good dialogue, and some of the finest and most vivid descriptive passages in mystery fiction."- Pederson (ed.): St. James Guide To Crime and Mystery Writers (4th ed.), p 533.
