New York: St. Martin's Press, 2008. First Edition, First Printing. . Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. The 22nd book in Haddam's mystery-crime series that has quietly and without fanfare made its way to the top of the list for those readers who like inventive plots and imaginative characters and are worth the intellectual exercise they demand. This time, retired FBI agent Gregor Demarkian is hired to find out what really happened on a small, exclusive island off the Massachusetts coast where the latest boy toy of an aging teen pop idol is found shot dead during one of the worst blizzards in decades. Boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square. The dustjacket shows only a few light scratches on the back panel and very minor edgewear, no tears, no chipping or creasing, not price-clipped. A collectable copy.
