Publication: Alfred A Knopf, 1972, New York

First edition. Inscribed by the author "For --- Greeting to the Mysterious Bookshop from Patricia Highsmith, 22 Oct. 1981, New York." Fine, bright copy in dust jacket with a miniscule chip to head of spine. A dog is kidnapped and the owners begin to receive ransom demands. What kind of person would do such a thing? How far into Manhattan's minor underworld will he lead the only policeman who took the case seriously? A clever story that keeps you guessing right to the end.
