Prima edizione Copia autografata
First edition. First edition. Signed by the author on the title page. Author's fourth book in the series. Fine, bright copy in a bright fresh dust jacket with two tiny "dings" to the upper third of the front cover flap fold area. This time Inspector Morse brings the imposition on himself. He could have been vacationing in Greece instead of investigating a murder that the police have long since written off. But he finds the crime--the brutal killing of a suburban churchwarden--fascinating. In fact, he uncovers not one murder but two, for the fatal fall of St. Frideswides vicar from the church tower Morse reckons to be murder as well. And as he digs into the lives and unsanctified lusts of the late vicar's erring flock, the list of the dead grows longer. Not even the oddly appealing woman he finds scrubbing the church floor can compensate Morse for the trouble he's let himself in for. So he has another pint, follows his hunches, and sets out to untangle the deadly business of homicide. Housed in a cloth clamshell case with the dust jacket duplicated on the front cover and spine. An attractive presentation.
