Comments & Further Information

A first UK edition hardback in good condition for its age.  The head of the book spine is quite badly bumped and there is also a bump to the tail.  Age tanning to pages.  Small stain on the leading edges of pages 233 to 246 but not encroaching onto page faces.  The price-clipped dust jacket is complete but is showing signs of wear. and is a little grubby  The laminate is creased across the top of the jacket and there is rubbing to the extremities.

SYNOPSIS:  “Provence at the time of the annual pilgrimage to Saintes-Maries of gypsies from all over Europe, even from behind the Iron Curtain.  The Duc de Croytor, distinguished folklorist and gastronome, is there of course.  So is Englishman Neil Bowman, for no apparent cause.

But something is different about this year’s pilgrimage.  A small group of gypsies has something they are determined to hide, and Bowman soon learns that curiosity is highly dangerous.  Before long he is on the run for his life.”
