Pictorial Wrappers. Condizione: Fine. No Jacket. First Edition Thus. First Quill Mysterious Classic Edition, so stated, with complete number line beginning with 1. Paperback. Light reading crease else a fine tight copy with paper age toned as is usuall with these Quill Classics. Series editor Otto Penzler. "Another razor-sharp,…cynical, Chandleresque detective novel by author Browne, in which by now legendary Chicago detective Paul Pine is summoned by a Bishop McManus to his chambers and tasked with locating a man named Raymond Wirtz. It seems Wirtz, a paleographer from California, had approached the Bishop with the offer of a manuscript that he claimed to possess that was written by "Our Lord, Jesus Christ." The asking price is twenty-five million dollars. But now Wirtz has up and disappeared, and the Bishop hires detective Pine to find him. This leads on a sort of wild goose chase through the streets of Chicago. Beautiful dames abound, murders and bodies pile up, and at least two of the major characters are not who they appear to be. Browne keeps his detective protagonist cynical, weatherworn and tough, and keeps the dialogue and action sharp, right down to the startling denouement that will shock and surprise the unsuspecting reader. A solid read." -- Ron2BSure on Amazon. Macanga, Steve (illustratore). Book.
