First edition of Asimov’s wonderfully woven, old-fashioned murder mystery. Octavo, original half cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the title page, “To Stephen Isaac Asimov.” Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Al Nagy.
"Trace back the violent death of a friend and see how it happened." So second-string writer Darius Just is forced to ruminate when murder rears its ugly head within the glamorous world of publishing. For amidst the brouhaha of a convention of American Booksellers, Just's onetime protege (now best-selling author) Giles Devore manages to pull off the publicity stunt of all time: turning up dead.
