This is a “good plus” paperback with a solid, albeit cocked spine. No loose, torn or folded pages. No writing. Back cover and lower spine have an approximate 2″ split. Covers show a fair amount of creasing. Internally, pages are of quality paper – rather unusual for the period – and are nice and bright.

Considered to be one of the “big four” novels of Mr. Chandler’s writing career.
