Hardcover. First American edition. Fine in a very good plus dustwrapper with some tiny, internally repaired tears, two tiny nicks, and a little edgewear. A much nicer than usual copy of this book that seems always found beset by flaws. A classic thriller, Ambler’s best known book and basis for the film *The Mask of Dimitrios* directed by Jean Negulesco, and featuring Peter Lorre, Sydney Greenstreet, and Zachary Scott.
