Cloth. Condición: Near Fine. 1. Publication: London, Constable, 1996 Formatting: 8vo, pp. [viii], 224. Condition Report: Near Fine. This copy is remarkably well-preserved, retaining a tight, square, and seemingly unread feel. The original black cloth boards are sharp and clean, with gleaming lettering and the publisher's device…to the spine. The binding remains entirely firm, with perfectly sound hinges. Internally, the pages are exceptionally clean and free of foxing, displaying only the faintest, uniform age-toning to the text block edges. The striking dust jacket is crisp and unclipped, showing the original publisher's retail price, with only the most trivial hints of shelf-wear to the extreme edges. A superb, collector-quality example. Catalogue Note: First edition, first impression. Released under the esteemed 'Constable Crime' imprint, the book is a testament to Ormerod's reputation for crafting traditional, intellectually satisfying detective fiction. The dust jacket, typical of the imprint's literal visual style, features a bold still-life photographic composition of artists' tools, a scalpel, a spray paint can, and a blood-dipped paintbrush, thematically anchoring the mystery within the art world. Unclipped, first-edition copies of Ormerod's works in such crisp condition remain an excellent acquisition for enthusiasts of modern British crime and suspense. In this intricately plotted novel of suspense, the recurring detective duo of Philipa Lowe and Oliver Simpson are drawn into a web of artistic jealousy and misplaced revenge. Following the murder of the artless Elise, a young woman abruptly presents herself to Philipa, confessing to the crime with a strong, albeit misdirected, motive. Convinced that the victim was entirely the wrong target for the confessed killer's revenge, Philipa must look past the obvious to protect her and unmask the true culprit. The key to unravelling the logic lies in a seemingly simple artist's tool: a sketching pastel appropriately known as 'sanguine', the very colour of blood. N/A (ilustrador).

Cloth. Condición: Near Fine. 1. Publication: London, Constable & Company Limited, 1988 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 205. Condition Report: Near Fine. Binding is tight and square, with sharp corners and un-bumped boards. The spine features striking silver lettering that remains bright and completely unoxidised. The text block is exceptio…nally clean; while the page edges display the faintest trace of age-toning typical of 1980s paper stock, they remain entirely free from foxing, markings, or internal blemishes. The original dust jacket is equally impressive, presenting a bright, glossy finish and a unclipped front flap bearing the original £9.95 net price. It exhibits no chipping or tears and is perfectly preserved beneath a clear, protective mylar sleeve. An exceptional, highly collectible copy. Catalogue Note: True first edition, first printing of Roger Ormerod's twenty-fifth crime novel, issued in the publisher's original black cloth binding. The dust jacket correctly attributes the novel to the acclaimed "Constable Crime" imprint. Adding significant literary association value to this copy is a warm presentation inscription on the title page, boldly penned in black ink: "To Eileen / Love from Roger.". The recipient of this copy is Eileen Dewhurst, a respected English mystery and crime writer in her own right. Such an association highlights a charming personal connection between two prolific contemporaries of the 20th-century British crime fiction scene. Signed first editions of Ormerod's earlier titles, particularly those with notable authorial associations, remain increasingly uncommon on the open market. With his twenty-fifth crime novel, Roger Ormerod deploys elements of subtle elucidation he has not previously explored. Walter Mann had become a virtual recluse, locking himself away in his rooms. When he is discovered dead with the doorkey still on its chain around his neck, the obvious conclusion is suicideâ"but in which case, why? Facing enmity and suspicion from the family, and actively discouraged by the police, Richard explores a potential link between Mann's demise and the equally suspicious earlier death of his son-in-law. The deployment of shares in the family business, a savage attack of reprisal, and a drama of love and betrayal all lead to a violent denouement where Richard finally uncovers the truth of the open window. N/A (ilustrador). Inscribed by Author(s).

Cloth. Condición: Near Fine. 1. Publication: New York, Charles Scribner's Sons, 1984 Formatting: 8vo, pp. [vi], 215. Condition Report: Near Fine. The binding remains remarkably tight and square, featuring crisp, clean boards free of notable shelf-wear or bumping to the extremities. Internally, the pages are uniformly bright and…completely devoid of foxing, dampstaining, or handling marks, presenting an exceptionally clean text block. The hinges are perfectly sound without any signs of starting. The original unclipped dust jacket is wonderfully preserved under a protective mylar wrapper, retaining its vibrant colors and glossy finish without any discernible sunning, rubbing, or edge-wear, save for the most microscopic friction at the spine ends. A superlative, collector's-grade copy. Catalogue Note: First United States Edition of Ormerod's complex procedural, originally published in the United Kingdom under the titleÂFace Value (1983). This specific copy possesses notable literary provenance, serving as an association copy between two established mystery authors of the same era. It is inscribed in blue ink on the title page by Ormerod to the acclaimed British crime and mystery writer Eileen Dewhurst: "To Eileen / With affection / Roger." Copies of Ormerod's works in such sharp condition are uncommonly encountered on the open market, and the addition of a colleague's presentation inscription makes this a pleasing acquisition for the dedicated genre collector. A masterclass in suspense and misdirection, The Hanging Doll Murder delivers a tightly woven web of clues, red herrings, and emotional conflict. The mystery unravels following a macabre discovery: a child's doll meticulously hung from a barren tree with a hangman's noose, its neck broken and a tuft of black hair attached to its chin. Praised by British critics as an "altogether taut piece of excitement," Ormerod's procedural keeps readers thoroughly off-balance until the final revelation. N/A (ilustrador).

Añadir al carritohardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Publication: London, Constable, 1987 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 175. Condition Report: Near Fine. The unclipped dust jacket is exceptionally bright and well-preserved, remaining free of fading or shelf-wear, and is securely housed in a protective mylar sleeve. The black cloth boards are sharp and unbum…ped, boasting clean, unoxidised silver lettering to the spine. The binding remains tight, square, and structurally sound. Internally, the pages are crisp and unmarked, displaying only the standard, faint age-toning to the text block edges characteristic of the original paper stock, alongside a neat presentation inscription in ink to the front free endpaper. Catalogue Note: First edition. A compelling association copy, this first printing bears a signed presentation inscription on the front free endpaper: "To Eileen / With love from Roger." The recipient is fellow crime writer Eileen Dewhurst, a contemporary of Ormerod, making this a highly appealing presentation copy between two active twentieth-century British crime novelists. The volume retains its striking original dust jacket, featuring the publisher's characteristic Constable Crime livery and quotes from The Spectator on the rear panel. While standard signed copies of Ormerod's work appear on the market with some regularity, presentation copies bearing direct, affectionate associations between published genre authors are markedly scarce. When ex-Chief Superintendent Llew Hughes urgently summons his old friend Richard Patton, claiming his life is in danger after uncovering suspicious details for his memoirs, Patton anticipates trouble. However, arriving too late, he finds Hughes dead in a devastating house fire. Refusing to accept the official verdict of an accident, Patton delves into the historical case that cost his friend his lifeâ"uncovering a web of deceit, a convicted murderer protesting his innocence, and a cleverly fabricated alibi that has withstood the test of time. N/A (ilustrador).

Añadir al carritohardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Publication: London, Constable & Company Limited, 1989 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 224. Condition Report: Near Fine. The binding is tightly secured and perfectly square, exhibiting sharp corners and unblemished spine ends with scarcely any shelf-wear. The text block is exceptionally crisp, featuring onl…y the very faint, uniform edge-tanning that is standard for the paper stock of this period. The dust jacket remains highly vibrant and uncreased, with no chipping or tears, and presents beautifully in a protective clear sleeve. Catalogue Note: A true first edition of the sixth novel in Ormerod's Inspector Richard Patton mystery series. This specific copy features a presentation inscription in black ink on the title page: "To Eileen with love from Roger." The recipient was Eileen Dewhurst, a fellow prolific British mystery and crime writer whose career ran parallel to Ormerod's. Such association copies between contemporary peers in the British crime fiction scene add a notable, factual provenance to the volume. Retired Detective Inspector Richard Patton and his wife Amelia have their peaceful life interrupted when Ameliaâs old college friend contacts her out of the blue. Following a mysterious burglary where seemingly nothing of value was taken, the situation quickly devolves into a complex murder investigation. Patton finds himself reluctantly pulled back into the world of crime-solving, forced to navigate academic rivalries, hidden motives, and his own loyalty to his wife's friend to uncover the truth. N/A (ilustrador).
