About This Item
New York, New York, U.S.A. : Henry Holt & Company,Inc. , 1995. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Soft cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Bery good (crease to rear cover;holes from a single staple removed from front cover), first edition, first printing Advance Uncorrected Proof (ARC) in plain wraos in protective plastic sleeve. This is the earliest printed and distributed version of this book. BUND Kinsey's skills are about to be sorely tested. She is about to meet her duplicitous match in a couple of world-class prevaricators who quite literally take her for the ride of her life. "L" is for LAWLESS--call it Kinsey Millhone in bad company. Call it a mystery without a murder, a treasure hunt without a map, a quest novel with truly mixed-up motives. Call it the return of Kinsey as bad girl, quick-witted and quicksilvery, poking her nose into everyone's dirty laundry as she joins up with a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde in an Our Gang comedy that will take her halfway across the country and leave her with a major headache and an empty bank balance. America's favorite borderline delinquent is back with her one-liners on tap and her energy on high, romping through her fastest and funniest adventure in this, her twelfth foray into the alphabet of crime.
Synopsis
