Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. Reprint Edition. Chicago: R.R. Donnelley & Sons, Publishers, 1885. Lynch wrote under a male pseudonym, and is sometimes credited as one of the first women to earn her living as a mystery writer. But "Emma Murdoch Van Deventer" may not have existed either; presumed to be an American, b…ut little or no reliable biographical data seems to be available. First published in 1882 [Hubin, p. 264]. This is a Very Good (Minus) copy of a reprinted edition from three years later. Purple cloth binding, now more of a dark brown. Decoratively stamped in black as "A Startling New Detective Story" with silver titling and decoration on the spine. Clean text; 557 pages, with a one-page advert in the rear. Many illustrations - frontis and 46 others within. Contemporary (1898) gift inscription on the FFEP, with a second signature on the following endpaper presumed to be the object of the gift. Publisher's cheap paper stock is toned but still quite readable. Mildly bumped; rubbing to head and foot now a light fray; hinges have been reinforced with a linen tape. In an archival plastic protector. Reprint Edition. Decorative Cloth. Very Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Aggiungi al carrellohardcover. Condizione: very good. London, Ward Lock [c1895]. Octavo green cloth blocked in black and gilt; frontispiece. Title browned but an excellent bright copy. A re-issue in Ward Lock's uniform series of thrillers which could consist of the first edition, a reprint, or a re-issue of sheets with a new title page which, as th…is title page is on very different paper to the rest of the book, is the case here. The book first appeared in Chicago, then London, in 1894.
