Covers lightly spotted, page edges tanned… else a very good or better copy in dust jacket, flap corners narrowly clipped retaining $2.75 price . Light wear at folds and rear panel is soiled. Mr. Fathom, is challenged here by nothing less than the Perfect Murder. "The strangest thing about this detective novel is the detective himself. In the UK editions he is called Mr. Verity while in the US editions he is renamed Mr. Fathom. he's a blustery wonderful incarnation of the detective as demi-god. Clearly inspired by Dr. Fell and Sir Henry Merrivale, Fathom is a large man of imposing physique with white hair, a dark haired Van Dyke beard, and a loud voice. Like Fell and H.M. it is his manner, speech and approach to crime solving that make him so notable. Fathom has a habit of indulging in grandiloquent speech making and opinionated rants. Insults are frequent during the many interrogation scenes leaving some of his targeted suspects speechless while reducing others to tears." J.F. Norris.This copy, although not marked as such, comes from the auction of the George Cloos collection of detective fiction. DeCosta, Arthur A. (illustratore). Book.
