First impression of the first UK edition [Originally published in the US by Dodd Mead in 1977]. Jacket photography by Helen Hale. ***Near fine in black cloth-covered boards with silver titles to spine. No inscriptions. Spine tight. Tail of spine slightly rubbed and bumped. Very tiny unobtrusive creases to a few lower page corners. Pages clean. ***In a very good colour illustrated dustwrapper showing the original publisher's price of £3.95 net. Edges of dustwrapper slightly rubbed and creased. Head and tail of spine of dustwrapper very slightly rubbed and creased. Pink to spine of dustwrapper very slightly faded. Rear panel of dustwrapper very slightly discoloured (being white background). No tears. Front panel of dustwrapper bright. 211 pages. 194 x 126mm. ***'Three months after her elopement with Jimmy Bartlett, Mary Ann Rutherford committed suicide. Why did the 20-year-old heiress take an overdose of sleeping pills? Why had she married the aloof, intellectual owner of a small antiques shop? ***Jimmy's sister Jennifer had been abroad when the headlines about the puzzling marriage and the even more puzzling suicide hit the world's press. Returning to New York she found her brother bewildered by the tragedy. ***Jimmy had met the closely guarded heiress through chance, and two weeks later she had proposed. The marriage soon proved a mistake. Bored and restless, Mary Ann did not like living in the poky flat over the shop, but when her furious father arrived to take her home she refused to go. Then the autopsy report showed she was four months pregnant. Refusing to listen to Jimmy's denials that he was the father, Rutherford set out to ruin him. The older man's venom was so unbridled that Jennifer wondered what hidden motive lay behind it. For her brother's sake she had to find out.' (Quote from inside front of dustwrapper blurb). ***Rae Foley, pen name of Elinore Denniston, born 20 September 1900 in New York and died on 24 May 1978 in Sherman, Connecticut, is an American Detective story writer. Elinore Denniston also published under Dennis Allan and Helen K. Maxwell pseudonyms. Elinore Denniston began her literary career in the early 1930s publishing classical whodunits under the name Dennis Allan. At the end of the Second World War she writes under the pen name: Rae Foley for the series featuring the detective Hiram Potter, an American version of Lord Peter Wimsey in Dorothy L. Sayers and Albert Campion in Margery Allingham's novels. 'The Girl Who Had everything' is the author's last published novel. ***First impression of the first UK edition complete in its original dustwrapper in nice collectable condition. The UK first edition is extremely hard to find compared to the US first edition, especially in its original dustwrapper. Of interest to collectors of Rae Foley (Elinore Denniston) and crime first editions. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
