Spine slightly cocked; top edge dust soiled; offsetting to front endpapers from laid-in clippings. Moderate foxing to endpapers and a little foxing to the title page, but none elsewhere. The jacket is a bit foxed and has a crease to the spine panel, but no chips or tears and very little wear. FIRST EDITION. PRESENTATION INSCRIPTION SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, on the front free endpaper.

The book is dedicated to Wellman and bears a review by him on the rear panel of the dust jacket. The story is concerned with the plight of a recently released convict and recovering alcoholic named Aaron Sloane. The author did not issue another novel until the 21st century, when she published "Hannah's House" (2008) and "Those who Hold the Threads" (2012) as "Joyce Allen.
