Just as the friendship is blossoming, the policeman's book-collecting friend is murdered.\nTo solve the mystery of why the victim was killed, and which of his rare books was taken, Wigan dives into the world of 'runners' and book collectors, where avid agents will gladly cut you for a first edition and then offer you a lift home afterwards. This adventurous mystery, which combines exuberant characters with a wonderfully realised depiction of the second-hand book market, is sure to delight bibliophiles and classic crime enthusiasts alike.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1728267722\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1728267722.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Farmer, Bernard J.|Edwards, Martin\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
