About this Item

First edition. The book is firmly bound in clean black cloth, lettered in silver to the spine, the extremities are slightly bumped and rubbed. The text block is lightly marked, foxed and toned. The Val Biro designed dust jacket is the original and not price clipped, it is a little grubby and marked with a few minor nicks and some light rubbing to the edges. A historical novel set in Georgian England, the drama revolving around "bastard niece" Willow Falcon, "in whose hands a black stone gleams and in whose heart a splinter of ice kills all pity. It is Willow Falcon, feeding on the evil planted by a witch, who makes a horror of the sunlit Kentish glades, a horror that reaches out to touch all those who venture beneath the archway guarded by the vinegar tree."; chilling stuff! Quite an uncommon find, most copies having gone to public libraries.
