About This Item
London:: Victor Gollancz, Ltd.,, 1977.. Hardcover first edition -. Fine in fine dust jacket.. First printing. "A story of guilt. The first in a series dealing with human failings. . . When Arthur Milton's wife leaves him for another man, and that man is soon murdered, Arthur is the Number One suspect. . . why does he begin investigating a murder of twenty years ago: the strangling of a girl with whom he once had an affair - a girl who was then about Julie's present age. A wise and understanding police detective plays a waiting and watching game, and we may think we know what the outcome is going to be but we'll probably be quite wrong. For Mr Burley has several startling and yet logical surprises in store. He has given us a most unusual plot this time, and a fascinating study of a troubled mind." 160 pp.
