Breaking and Entering, An Inspector Ghote Novel

First edition, first impression with full number line. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, WITHOUT DEDICATION, IN BLACK PEN, ON TITLE PAGE. Some very slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, top corners very slightly rubbed, price clipped, no other inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy, looks unread. 266pp. Officially excluded from the most baffling murder case to occur in Bombay for many years, H. R. F. Keating's (1926-2011), Inspector Ghote of the Bombay CID has only one option, to track down the killer unofficially instead. Scarce signed.
