Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. This appears to be a First Edition of this book as the year on the title page matches the year on the copyright page and there are no other printings mentioned. The author's name for this title is a pseudonym for the author Ross Thomas, and it appears to be the second book written under this pen name. The boards have tan paper covering and a pinkish cloth spine cover with with black lettering for the author's name and white lettering for the title. There is some light soiling to the covers and edge wear, but the corners remain sharp. Internally, the 254 pages of text are bright, clean, without underlining or highlighting, and there is no marginalia. The leaf edges are lightly toned. The dust wrapper is without rips or tears, is not price clipped, but does seem to have some light soiling to the back panel. There also seems to have been some production difficulties with the gloss finish as there appear to be some vertical rises to the finish. The dust jacket is currently protected by a clear removable cover.
