About This Item
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1988. ARC . Large Softcover. Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. This is an Advance Reading Copy, or ARC - a publishing state fast becoming an attractive "collectible", as it precedes the First Edition. Frank Conti follows his wife--a compulsive gambler--to Atlantic City, to find that she is being held prisoner by his boyhood rival, Tony Allio, now a mob boss who forces Conti to embezzle money and become a drug courier--until Conti turns the tables. 273 pages, with the publisher's promotional letter laid-in. CONDITION: a bright, tight, square, unmarked, uncreased, likely unread copy with minimal shelf-wear. This handsome, collectible copy is now in a clear, protective polypropylene bag.
