Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. An attorney searches for answers after he witnesses his colleague's murder and soon realizes that he's being framed for something much bigger. Merchants Bridge is another engrossing legal thriller from J.D. Trafford, bestselling author of Little Boy Lost and Without Precedent. Everything changes for Graydon Gray Wendt while walking back to the office after a late dinner with a potential client. An SUV swerves and jumps the curb in front of them. His law partner is killed immediately, and Gray is knocked to the ground and shot twice in the chest. A few days later, Gray wakes up in the hospital. His face is swollen. His body is sore, and his mind is scattered. Some of his clearest memories from that night are dismissed as by-products of a concussion. Although healing, Gray's attempt to return to work is complicated by headaches and hallucinations. He struggles with paranoia and how to differentiate what is real and what is not. Law enforcement, in the meantime, focus their attention on Gray, and he must figure out what really happened and who is setting him up to take the blame.…

12mo, pp. 38, [8]; 1-168, 145-180, 169-180, 193-'238' [i.e. 255], [1] blank; [iv], 56; contemporary panelled sheep, rebacked. First edition. A collection of Whig ballads, satirically dedicated 'to the Jacobitical Tories, and traiterous rioters of Great Britain'. The dedication is signed, 'Your merry physician, Philopat'. Many of the ballads in this volume express the sense of jubilation felt by the Whigs upon the accession of George I; a good number of them had already appeared as broadsides. The collection is in three parts, and Part III has its own title-page, with the imprint dated 1715. There was also a supplement to the third part (pp. 57-80), but as in most copies, it is not present here. Samuel Keimer had an unusual history: in 1722 he emigrated to Philadelphia, where in 1723 he took the young Benjamin Franklin, just arrived in the town, into his employment. Keimer went bankrupt in 1729 and emigrated to Barbados, and died there in about 1739. Case 280 (1, 2 and 3) wrongly states that the supplement has an additional table of contents to Parts I-II; in fact this table of contents is present here, at the end of Part I.…
