Publication: Faber and Faber, 1972, London

First edition. Signed by the author on the title page. Fine in dust jacket. The first Cordelia Gray mystery. Bernie Pryde's death was certainly suicide and it left Cordelia Gray as sole proprietress of Bernie's private detective agency. It also left her with an assignment originally intended for Bernie...to investigate the death of a Cambridge student who was found hanging in his room. An attractive, fresh copy that introduces Cordelia Gray. This copy is contained in a cloth clamshell case, with the lightly worn dust jacket design reproduced across the front, spine, and rear covers. A handsome presentation.
