Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. The novel is the story of a man who digs his own grave. Earl Sommers is a me-first kind of guy. He works as a furniture specialist at a prestigious antiques gallery, a likely heir apparent to the elderly owner of the gallery. But he's not above cheating his benefactor or playing illicit games with the owner's young wife. But then things start to turn sour. The owner finds out. Earl sees it all slipping away -- the gallery, the young wife, even his profession. "Miss Paul is a highly skillful writer, and First Gravedigger should keep readers turning pages to the end." ---The New York Times. An excellent book presented in a Mylar. SIGNED.
