Zustand: FINE. Limited, signed edition. In his introduction, Jeffery Deaver describes this novella as an example of the new literary gothic - "it's the story of a woman - a widow - beset by a mystery, setting out on a journey to find the truth behind it and threatened by physical and psychological risks along the way. We find passionate hearts, dreams gone wrong and enigmas slowly revealed until we arrive at the story's stunning conclusion. And, like the best gothic fiction, the story transcends the events it depicts and gives us themes to chew on long after we've finished the last paragraph, themes that have resonated in literature throughout history: how easily love and ambition can mutate into jealousy, deceit and greed, for instance, and how our nature and character determine our ultimate fate." Four tipped on illustrations by Phil Parks. #14 out of 40 Collectors' Copies, SIGNED by all three contributors on the limitation page. 45 pp. Fine in burgundy boards with a pasted on illustration on the front cover, in a matching clam shell case.
