About This Item

Ontario, Canada: Mira Books, 2004. First Edition. First Printing.. Softcover. Fine/No Dust Jacket, As Issued.. Ontario, Canada: Mira Books, 2004. Softcover. Fine/None, As Issued. First Edition/First Printing. 317 pages. The author's fifth novel. Now considered a contemporary classic. Uncorrected Proof. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited print run as a softcover original only for the exclusive use of the publisher and author. Pictorial softcovers with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Text by Alex Kava. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Alex Kava's "One False Move". Often compared to her fellow writer Patricia Cornwell. Alex Kava continues her exploration of the tenuous line between Good and Evil, and how easily the good person can commit an evil act (and vice versa) in one moment of desperation, in this case, a bank robbery that ends in four innocent people being killed. An absolute "must-have" title for Alex Kava collectors. This copy of the Uncorrected Proof is very prominently and beautifully signed, placed, and dated (in the year of publication) in black ink-pen on the title page by the author: "Book Expo Chicago 2004 Alex Kava". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the Uncorrected Proof still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce signed copy thus. One of the finest American mystery writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER ALEX KAVA TITLES IN OUR CATALOG).
