Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine dj. Illustrated by (dj design) Mick Keates (illustrator). 1st U.K. hardcover edition. [upper corners bumped, affecting both book and jacket; otherwise clean and tight with no significant wear]. SIGNED by the author at the top of the title page: "Donald E. Westlake / RS." The fourteenth book in the author's Parker series, and one of the first two (the other was "Deadly Edge," which immediately preceded it) to be published in hardcover. (All the previous entries, beginning with "The Hunter" in 1962, had been paperback originals.) This caper involves an armored-car robbery perpetrated by Parker and his sometime-accomplice Alan Grofield; when it goes awry due to an incompetent getaway driver, Parker is forced to hide out in an amusement park that's closed for the winter. In a peculiar bit of cross-pollination, the same robbery had earlier been depicted in the opening chapter of "The Blackbird," a 1969 entry in the author's Grofield series. (That book depicted Grofield's escape from the crime scene, while this book follows Parker's.) (This no doubt accounts for the fact that the book bears both 1969 and 1971 copyright dates.) "Slayground" had been filmed in England the year before this edition appeared, with the Parker character's name changed to "Stone" for some reason; the film was poorly received (the BFI's Monthly Film Bulletin described it as "FLASHDANCE meets film noir," and dubbed it "disappointingly lame"), and was never released in the U.S. Signed by Author.
