paperback. No Jacket. First Edition. New York. 1981. Penguin Books. Reprinted Papderback Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers. 0140039449. 256 pages. paperback. Cover design by Neil Stuart. Cover photograph by Arthur Tress. keywords: Mystery America Women. DESCRIPTION - A dog disappears. A ransom is demanded. The well-meaning, middle-aged New York couple - childless, generous - pay up. And pay again. The kidnapper - angry, perhaps psychotic - tricks them. The decent young policeman, obsessed with the case, falls deeper and deeper into involvement with the criminal, and with his victims. A 'minor' crime inexorably grows into an agonizing and violent tragedy. This is the material from which the brilliant and subtle Patricia Highsmith has created another novel of psychological depth and tension. It confirms the judgment of her work expressed on the publication of her last book by The Times Literary Supplement: 'She is the crime writer who comes closest to giving crime writing a good name.' inventory #48335 Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers.
