Lightly rubbed at edges, damp stain at lower edges unaffecting text, pages uniformly age toned in dust jacket, sunned at spine, shallow loss at top spine ends and flap corners, a couple of closed tears. Remarkably good copy as Tower Books were notorious for poor quality and cheap paper. Press agent Jake Justus doesn't care if all of Chicago drops dead. He's just tied the knot with debutante Helene Brand, and a Bermuda honeymoon is only three in-flight martinis away. But the shooting death of a man in broad daylight, on the busiest shopping day of the year, with plenty of witnesses, is particularly ill timed. Jake's pal, attorney John J. Malone, agrees.
