Zustand: FINE. First printing. An uncommon true crime book - stories from the Vidocq Society, a team of the world's finest forensic investigators. "Three of the greatest detectives in the world - including an eccentric profiler (Richard Walters) known as 'the living Sherlock Holmes' - decided one day over lunch that something had to be done, and pledged themselves to a grand quest for justice. The three men invited the greatest collection of forensic investigators ever assembled, drawn from five continents, to the Downtown Club in Philadelphia to begin an audacious quest: to bring the coldest killers in the world to an accounting. Named for the first modern detective, the Parisian Eugene Franois Vidocq, the flamboyant Napoleonic real-life sleuth who inspired Sherlock Holmes, the Vidocq Society meets monthly in its secretive chambers to solve a cold murder over a gourmet lunch." SIGNED on the title page by both the author, Michael Capuzzo, and Richard Walter, one of the founders of the Vidoq Club. Illustrated with photographs. Selected bibliography. xvi,439 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket.…
