About This Item
New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1988. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Near fine. First American Edition, first printing. Review copy, with the publisher's promotional material laid in. Signed by Bernard Cornwell on the title page. A crippled veteran of the Falklands War sails into the north Atlantic to discover whether a famous television presenter is a murderer. Octavo. As is often the case, the gilt stamping on the dust jacket is a bit tarnished; else a fine, unread copy.
