LORAC, E.C.R. [pseudonym of Edith Caroline Rivett (1894-1958)].
Shroud of Darkness.
London: Published for The Crime Club by Collins, 1954.
FIRST EDITION, first printing. Octavo (20 x 14cm), pp.192. Publisher's red cloth lettered in black to spine. Dust-jacket with printed price of 9s. 6d. net to front flap.
Internally clean, toning to edges and endpapers, light spotting to edges, neat ownership in pen to pastedown. Cloth shows well, marginally sunned to spine. Dust-jacket shows very well, a couple of small closed tears to upper, small area of loss to top rear corner, red text to spine faded. An elusive title especially so in the dust-jacket. Very good.
