Sobre este artículo
186 pages. Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's beige boards with red lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition.
Wychford is a charming and quiet West Country village. Or rather, it was – until Mrs Tompkins was found with her throat slashed. Now, when evening shadows fall, the picturesque little lanes seem filled with menace and golden Cotswold stones are stained with blood in the first of Paula Gosling's Luke Abbott series, The Wychford Murders. Detective Chief Inspector Luke Abbott is sent to find the killer. He was born and brought up in Wychford – but he hardly recognizes it. The young girl he loved has become the local doctor. The boy who once bullied him is now a respected local Squire. And in all the small homes and cottages the people of Wychford hide – wondering who next will fall victim to the killer's bloody knife.
Abbott's investigation exposes the private lives behind the postcard prettiness: secret loves and hates, perversion, envy, jealousy, greed, and – eventually – a ruthless murderer.
Condition: Spine heal bumped, rear heal pages with wear and tears. Jacket with light edge wear, spine ends rubbed with some small closed tears and small chips else very good in a near fine jacket.
