First edition. Jacket edges rubbed with minor loss from corners, toned tape repairs on reverse of jacket spine head and foot, minor scuff on front board. 1935 Hard Cover. 255 pp. First mystery, and one of only two using this pseudonym, by Frederick Faust, who also wrote under the pen name Max Brand. From the half-title page: "It is the tale of John Witherby, physical superman, in a contest of strength and racing, smashing, violence with a man called the Doctor, and his gorillas, for possession of John's inheritance and for the fancy of the Doctor's female decoy. Savage and brutal without let-down, it casts a rare spell." From the jacket flap: "It is a favorable sign in a murder mystery if the author has refrained from the use of any secret underground passage and of any sly and slinking Orientals. That means a suspicion that the mystery has originality. And originality is the feature that first flashes at you out of the pages of Cross Over Nine.
