Greenwich: CT: Fawcett Gold Medal, 1957. 1st printing, July 1957, Gold Medal #s688. [.35 cover price] Vintage Paperback. Cover by Richard Powers. Although there are others that try to cast doubt on Theo's Durrant's conviction, this is the only one that explains exactly why the jury found him guilty. Based on the lead detective's notes -- the discovery of which in the wreckage of the San Francisco earthquake must have bordered on the miraculous -- and the many, many, many interviews everyone involved in the case (including Durrant himself) gave to the press -- this is deeply researched and wonderfully told. This was Jackson's last book as he died before he could finish and his good friend took over where he left off. All Vintage Paperbacks come sealed in 2.5 mil plastic bag and taped closed with removable tape which will not tear the covers if it sticks to them when the book is removed.. 1st Edition.

Somewhere in the elegance of Beekman Place, the stone refuge of the very rich, she lay naked and sprawled across an heirloom of a bed in the grotesque position of sudden and violent death. She was beautiful Patsy Burton Lonergan, 22-year-old wife, motherand sole heiress to seven million dollars. She had been bludgeoned to death with a heavy brass candlestick handsomely inlaid with green glass. The room was a shambles. The following dawn Toronto police took into custody Patsy Lonergan's husband, Wayne, a Royal Canadian Air Force cadet. He had two gashes on his chin.
