Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 180 pages. Octavo (8" x 5 1/4") bound in original publisher's red cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First British edition. The murder of schoolteacher Henry Gower brings Superintendent Kenworthy to a village jolted out…of its placid ways by events leading to the killing. Keeping the reader rooted to the ramifications in Hilton's 16th novel about the urbane master detective, the question that needs answering is whether Gower was guilty of ""indecent assault,'' as charged by four adolescent girls in his classes. Kenworthy artfully engages the girls' families in sessions with Sgt. Polly Parrot and Constable Patsy Price, skilled at penetrating sham. They hope to breach the conspirators' defenses when the weakest of the quartet confesses the accusation was a hoax. But it is a long and frustrating time before startling facts reward the superintendent and his police women with the case's solid conclusion. The author's insights into fraudulent personas as well as his stinging wit are, as always, the main attraction in his stylish mysteries. Condition: Head corners gently bumped. Jacket with light edge wear else a near fine copy in like jacket.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 164 pages. Octavo (8" x 5 1/4") bound in original publisher's red cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First British edition. The late author's final case for Detective Constable Brunt (The Quiet Stranger, 1985; etc.) is a…nother of his finely crafted, psychologically acute police procedurals. In the early 1900's Walderslow village is isolated and provincial. Widower Horatio Brittlebank, local squire and landowner, shares his manor with reclusive housekeeper Charlotte Machin and spoiled, self-centered son Bernard, just home from Oxford and already the seducer of Mary Ann, daughter of Septimus and Ellen Durden, owners of run-down Slickensides farm and the old mine beneath it. Rumors of Bernard's departure for Canada, spread by a couple of strangers in the village; a reported break-in at the farm; and unexplained changes in the neighborhood's water-flow patterns lead Brunt to the discovery of Bernard's corpse in the old mine workings. The young man had a legion of enemies, so it takes all Brunt's patience and acumen to find the murderer and conjure up an unconventional justice. Believable characters, sound motivation, and solid evocation of time and place have been Hilton hallmarks. Slickensides is no exception. A fitting windup to a first-rate career in the British traditional genre. Condition: A near fine copy in like jacket.

Large Softcover. Condition: Fine. Advance Reading Copy (ARC). THE NEW COLLECTIBLE! This is a Limited Edition Uncorrected Proof copy, often designated as an Advance Reader's Copy/ARC (though they are usually not technically the same.) As such, this small-print-run state precedes the First Edition - hence its collectibility. This…large paperback edition appears to have the same size page-block as the subsequent hardcover. It is Moore's masterful tale of a Canadian missionary on a poor Caribbean island, who rescues a child from poverty and directs him into the priesthood and his eventual revolutionary leadership of the island's people - only to encounter violent resistance from the lighter-skinned elite and the ruling military junta. 216+ pages, with the publisher's publicity bulletin laid-in. CONDITION: a bright, tight, square, unmarked, uncreased copy with negligible shelf-wear - now in a clear, protective polypropylene bag.
