What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Illustrated, With Dustwrapper

The first edition of this work in the publisher's original cloth binding, with the original unclipped dust wrapper. The story of Charles Sobhraj's life and capture endures as legend. Stealing passports, smuggling drugs and guns across Asia, busting out of prisons and robbing wealthy associates, his situation grew steadily more perilous and he turned to murder. Blurring the boundaries between true crime and novelisation, this remains the definitive book about Sobhraj, as told by journalists Richard Neville and Julie Clarke.

Condition

In publisher's original cloth binding, with original unclipped dust wrapper. Externally, cloth is in excellent condition. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. The odd small mark to the dust wrapper, and a little sunning to the spine of the wrap; otherwise, dust wrapper remains bright.
