From the jacket blurb: "When a cold case dossier lands on Captain Benny Griessel's desk, he and his partner Vaughn Cupido, fellow member of the Hawks elite police unit in South Africa, reluctantly set to work reviewing the evidence of the disappearance and possible murder of ex-cop Johnson Johnson on the world's most luxurious train line.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. 1st Edition. Stated 'First Printing, First American Edition 1967.' You can see the covers in the photos. They are quite clean, maybe a little spot off the front bottom edge. The lettering on the front and spine is nicely bright. There's some of the usual crinkling at the spine ends, no tears. The cover edges are in excellent shape, no rubbing. The same goes for the cover corners. The spine has a slight to moderate forward lean, but the book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. The inside covers and end papers are red. They are all very clean and free of wear. The interior the book is in very nice condition. I scrolled through the pages a good number of times. They are, in the main, very clean. I saw a tiny amber spot off the bottom edge of three consecutive pages, obviously very far from the print. I also saw one other page with a tiny amber spot just off its bottom edge, and one other tiny spot off the middle edge of one page. There is one thin placeholder crease. I didn't see any other creasing. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. I have always had it in a fitted protective cover. There is a small loss off the top edge of the front cover and two tiny ones off the top edge of the rear cover. The spine is somewhat toned and has a couple of small whitish spots. The flaps are in very solid shape, no conspicuous soiling, no tears or losses. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. From the dust jacket: 'With the South African publication of this novel, the first in a trilogy, Etienne Leroux was hailed as his country's most brilliant and original novelist and attacked as an immoralist. When the book received the Herzog Prize in 1964-- the highest Afrikaans literary award-- it became the center of a furious nation-wide controversy that has not yet abated. Its publication in the United States marks the first appearance of abroad in English of an extraordinary writer who deserves wide and serious attention. The translator Charles Eglington is one of South Africa's foremost English poets and critics.' Several of Leroux's books, to his credit, were banned by the government of South Africa. …

Buckram. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. From "A Word to the Reader": The writer of these tales of wild animal life of the vast untrodden parts of South-Eastern Africa the home of the big game, the open plains, the bush, the swamps, lagoons, rivers the mountains and the awesome silent forest - is one of the few endowed with the real temperament to whom the accident of opportunity has opened the door to this wonderland of Nature. This young Dutch South African, still in the early twenties, spent his boyhood in these parts and absorbed the spirit of the land and its meaning as those may do who grow with the life not only in the country, but of it. These tales were written for the interest of a small circle; written just as they had been told among friends in his own home and homely language-known in South Africa as Afrikaans. ---------------------------------------- 256 pages, Jagger Bequest sticker on inside front cover ---------- Orders of $100.00 or more are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
