About This Item
London: Macmillan, 1995. First edition, first printing (number line on copyright page begins with 1). Hardcover, 519 pages. A highly acclaimed vampire novel, the sequel to the author's 'A Dance in Blood Velvet'. "A seductive blend of the fantastic and the gruesome" - Ramsay Campbell. A little shelf wear along bottom edge of boards, one small, shallow dent on front board, still a crisp, tight copy, at least VG+ and probably most would grade this Near Fine. In a Near Fine dustjacket with a small abrasion on the front panel close to the flap fold. Overall both book and jacket are fresh and bright. A nice copy of a very scarce book..
