About This Item
London: Faber & Faber, 1988. First edition. Cloth. Near Fine/Near Fine. 9" by 5.5". None. A signed first edition of this clever thriller, 'Threatening Eye', by Lesley Grant-Adamson. A tragedy draws the life of two men together; one restless as he awaits the shame which will surely follow if and when the police uncover his sordid double life, the other full of the hope and promise of rebuilding his life following a secret discovery made at a country church. Together, they will be set on a path wrought with evil, deceit, and destruction. In the original publisher's cloth binding with the original dustwrapper. Externally, smart. Very minor shelfwear to the boards. Very light edgewear to the dustwrapper. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Near Fine
