New York: HarperCollins, 2010. First Edition, First Printing. . Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. The Edgar Award-winning Franklin received extraordinary praise for this novel from his fellow authors, including Richard Russo, Dennis Lehane and George Pelecanos. "Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter" features a pair of boyhood friends -- one black, one white -- who find themselves on opposite sides of a murder investigation. Boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square, not remaindered. The dustjacket shows a touch of rubbing, a bit of edgewear at lower end of spine, no tears, no creasing or chipping, not price-clipped. Collectable.
