London: Faber & Faber, 1990. First edition. Cloth. Fine/Fine. 9" by 6". Not Stated. A crisp, first edition copy of this crime fiction novel from Michael Dibdin's famous Aurelio Zen series. The second book of this popular series. Signed by the author to the title page. The Aurelio Zen series are Dibdin's best known works. They provide an insight into less visible aspects of Italian society at the turn of the twenty-first century. Aurelio Zen is an anti-hero, which adds to the irony and dark humour found in these books. There are eleven books in the series total. This is the second novel of this critically acclaimed series.

Signed by the author to the title page. In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, excellent, with no discernible shelf wear. Original unclipped dust wrapper is excellent, with no wear. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright and clean. Fine
