At the start of this novel Rosher has been demoted to Detective-Sergeant, and has been assigned to initiate a visiting American patrolman into English police procedure. The book is bound in the original red boards with gold titling on the spine. The book is in excellent condition and the contents are tight and clean with no inscription. The dustwrapper has shelf wear with some light soiling and the top edge is rubbed. The spine ends and top front corner are bumped with a nick and surrounding crease on the top front corner. It has been price clipped with a later publisher's price sticker beside the clip.
