The Mocking Program

A beautiful black leatherbound first edition from the Easton Press. Binding remains tight, text clean and clear throughout apart from Alan Dean Foster's signature, the notation noting its number, and a used bookplate left from previous owner; full leather over moire endpapers, all edges gilt with a ribbon bound in. Three raised bands on the spine, with gilt detailing and titles on spine. 'Inspector Angel Cardenas has seen murdered corpses like George Anderson's, but never a case like this. The victim's ID doesn't match his DNA, Anderson's wife and preteen daughter, Katla, are missing, their home has been turned into a time bomb-and mobs from three continents are all hunting Katla. Relying on his training as a nearly telepathic intuit, Cardenas embarks on a search for clues that leads him from the Strip's sex parlors and stimstick clubs, where kids are deadly and music can kill, to an undersea hideout where computer crimes are committed by criminal computers. Yet the closer Cardenas gets to the girl, the closer assassins are getting to them both.' 279 pages. 6.25 x 9.25 inches. Limited Edition #932 of 1000.
