350 pages. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's quarter dark blue cloth with silver lettering to spine over beige boards in original pictorial jacket. First edition. The squadroom at 5:15 on New Year's morning looked much as it did on any other day... But an exceptionally heinous crime was already sending a wave of outrage through even the veteran cops of the 87th Precinct: a wealthy couple, returning home from New Year's festivities, discovered their baby -- and the infant's teenage sitter -- murdered. Parents themselves, detectives Carella and Meyer resolve to bring in the perpetrator at any cost. Meanwhile, gang warfare is overtaking the city's streets, threatening its very foundation. A sinister song of death and destruction echoes through the 87th, and it isn't "Auld Lang Syne." Condition: Jacket corners rubbed, closed tears at head, spine extremities rubbed, spine head small closed tears with creases else very good to fine in like jacket.
