Pictorial Wrappers. Condition: As New. First Edition. 1st edition. An unread copy of this trade paperback. First published in 1944, this was the fourth book to feature Jeff and Haila Troy whose exploits were popular with readers and movie goers six decades ago. "Photographer Jeff Troy and his wife Haila are visiting Central Park and run into a group of adult enthusiasts for model boats, which they sail in the lake. When one of them is found impossibly murdered (he's sitting on a rocky knoll and no-one approaches him before he's stabbed), the wife of one of the suspects hires Jeff for the princely sum of $1000--well, it's 1944 and that's a lot of money. Jeff doesn't want to investigate, but Haila insists, and they find themselves questioning a lot of different suspects and getting in a lot of trouble. Humorous, light-hearted, sometimes spooky--the Troys cover a lot of ground until they identify the not-at-all lighthearted motive for murder." -- Goodreads. Book.

First Edition
(1942). First edition, first printing. Mild age-toning to the text, patches of fading to the front cover, from erasures, some shelfwear and nicks to the spine, curling to the corners of the covers and text, else about very good in illustrated wraps. First publication of this novelette (128 pages), later collected in the U.S. publication HOME IS THE HANGMAN (1949). A story of espionage and counter-espionage set in the South Seas by the screenwriter, director, and novelist. Very scarce!.
