About This Item
London: Peter Davies, 1953. Early Edition. "Tey opened up the possibility of unconventional secrets. Homosexual desire, cross-dressing, sexual perversion - they were all hinted at, glimpsed in the shadows as a door closed or a curtain twitched. Tey was never vulgar nor titillating.... Nevertheless, her world revealed a different set of psychological motivations." - Val McDermid in "The brillliant unconventional crime novels of Josephine Tey"(The Telegraph, July 2015)<br /> <br /> Second edition copy printed in 1953. Orignal first issue DJ with "9s 6d" price on lower front flap. A nice copy of this early detective novel from the famed Scottish author. A few minor chips to DJ edges.
