About This Item
Sun Dial Press reprint edition. Red cloth with black print, no dust jacket. Prior owner's stamp on blank page. Topper Takes a Trip (set on the French Riviera) is about a respectable banker called Cosmo Topper, married to his depressingly staid wife Mary, and his misadventures with a couple of ghosts, Marion and George Kerby, who introduce him to other ghosts. He is romantically attracted to Marion, who at one point tries to kill him so that they can always be together. Unusually for such a book, Mary is treated sympathetically—she does not like what she has become and tries to change. Sequel to a prior novel, Topper.
