This story was taken from Skinner's own manuscript which was originally titled The House of Ellis. The first edition gave Skinner equal billing as it was her manuscript Lawrence used. It was later made into a television miniseries in 1984. A beautiful copy, nearly fine bound in dark blue cloth ruled in blind lettering gilt, spine lettering gilt. Very nice.
