Printed Wrapper. Condición: Fine. No Jacket. First Edition. First IPL printing, September 1986, with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in wraps. A Pharoah Love title. 20th Anniversary Paperback Edition with new Preface by Baxt. "This is a detective story, and unlike any other that you have read. No brief review can attempt to convey its quality. I merely note that it deals with a Manhattan sub-culture wholly devoid of ethics or morality, that staid readers may well find it 'shocking,' that it is beautifully plotted and written with elegance and wit, that I have certain reservations concerning its strict technical fairness, and that you must under no circumstances miss it. This is announced as the first of a trilogy about the dual minority (Negro and homosexual) police detective Pharoah Love; and I wish I could simply estivate until the second appears." -- Anthony Boucher, June 12, 1966.

Page edges lightly soiled else about fine. In England, Kyrll Bonflglloll's first novel "Don't Point That Thing at Me" received rapturous reviews, won the first John Creasy Memorial Award and was the Sunday Telegraph's Crime Book of the Year. The narrator is once again the Hon. Charlie Mortdecal, now married to the exquisite Johanna. This time, however, while staying In Jersey, he is on the side of the angels, helping to track down a rapist who appears to have invoked some of the ancient forms of evil that were manifest in the crimes of the so-called -Beast of Jersey. As the horrors mount Charlie's Incorrigible humor keeps pace as he tells the tale, so that a wildly comic narrative mixes with tragedy and cruelty-sometimes veiled, sometimes explicit-with bewildering speed.

Pictorial Wrappers. Condición: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 1st eition, November 1985, with complete number line beginning with 1. Illustrations by Stephen Sweny. Seven stories, including one recounting the famous first meeting of Johnson and Boswell, and de la Torre has added a new introduction explaining how she came to write them. "De la Torre makes Samuel Johnson, the 18th century lexicographer and author, and his biographer, James Boswell, into detectives who, like Holmes and Watson, solve crimes with their superior intellects and the aid of science. Boswell narrates the adventures in a style familiar to readers of the Life of Johnson, and de la Torre notes actual cases that inspired the stories: a missing heir who suddenly reappears to claim his fortune; a "servant wench" who is kidnapped and then returns with no memory of what has happened to her; body-snatchers apprehended; a triple murder discovered in a locked room. This is the first Johnson book since 1960 and, with its provocative literary twist, makes for an enjoyable mystery read." -- PW. Sweny, Stephen (ilustrador). Book.…

Hard Cover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First Edition. 1st edition, June 1990, with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, with protective mylar cover. Hardboiled crime. The author is a convicted felon who penned his first novel from inside the Minnesota State Prison. "This gritty police procedural centers on the stereotypical good and bad cops at River Station, in the slums of an unnamed city. The good guys--homicide detectives Tony Lonto and Pat Runnion--are investigating the death of a florist (who was allergic to flowers) killed after picking up his latest shipment. The police at first assume that a robbery went wrong, but the detectives discover an incriminating link between the city's drug trade and the florist's delivery service. When a narcotics detective from River Station is found tortured and murdered, narcs Jake Gunnarson and Earl Koppel, the bad cops, conduct their own "investigation" into their colleague's murder, putting themselves on a course headed straight toward a confrontation with Lonto and Runnion. Will the good guys find the killers before the bad guys cover their tracks.Johnson, himself a prison inmate, clearly knows the drug trade and the mean streets he writes about."-- PW. Book.…

Pictorial Wrappers. Condición: New. First Printing. 1st printing, October 1991, so stated with complete number line beginning with 1. Broadway producer Peter Duluth's actress wife Iris is out of town for a while visiting her ailing mother. Peter is induced to go to a party held by their overweening upstairs neighbors, belle dame actress Lottie Marin and her subjugated husband Brian. There he meets Nanny Ordway, a young wannabe writer who seems like a fish out of water. Because he's lonely and she's broke and hungry, he takes her out for a burger. They see each other a few more times, always strictly platonically, and finally he lends her the key to the Duluth apartment so she can write there during the day, while he's out, rather than try to do so in the dumpy Greenwich Village apartment she shares with another girl. It never dawns on him that others might regard his friendship with Nanny rather differently until, on Iris's return, they go back to the apartment from the airport to find Nanny, dressed in pajamas, dead and hanging from the chandelier in the master bedroom, having apparently hanged herself. Zann, Nicky (ilustrador). Book.…
