A very good, clean, tight copy of Eric Ambler's classic thriller and a Haycraft-Queen cornerstone title. Lacks the dustwrapper.Red cloth, some fading to the backstrip and top edges a little dusty, else no blemishes. A scarce edition because of the wartime destruction of the publisher's London warehouse. This copy is fresh to the market in 2020.

Considered one of Ambler's best works, this novel features the mystery writer Charles Latimer, who stumbles upon the life story of criminal Dimitrios Makropoulos.
