Fine, unread, new copy of the trade paperback [originally pub. in 1940 and very scarce]. Professor Westborough has to find the key to two locked room mysteries as well as solve a complicated cipher to catch a clever killer. When Jonas Wright, a print shop owner and collector of antique weapons, is found slain by his own Gothic halberd in the locked weapons room of his Chicago mansion, Lieutenant Jolnmy Mack knows it's a case that is right up his best friend's alley. So he calls upon Lucius Theocritus Westborough, the little man with the long name and even longer reputation, to help him investigate. The culprit could well be a member of the dead man's household, and Mack favors his lovely daughter, Madeleine Wright, who's hopelessly in love with her father's partner, suave and sophisticated Julian Carr. But Julian is already married, to a selfish heiress who refuses to live with him, and Madeleine is being pursued by artist Tony Corveau, who was recently fired by her father. Westborough suspects the case is far more complicated than his friend believes it to be and that its solution is to be found in the dead man's notebooks, if only he can find the key to the sophisticated cipher in which they are written. Without it, the killer's motives will continue to elude Westborough and his police colleagues. First published in 1940, Dragon s Cave showcases the author's skill at working historical details and the eccentricities of collectors of odd objects into the narrative.. 1st Prtg.

'I was living in pleasant anonymity under the name of Helmut Icicle, taking smartass sport-divers out on holocam trips around the reefs of Kedge-Lockaby. Fourteen thousand light years away from civilization, K-L's a freesoil planet way out in the boondocks, and that's the way I like it: it makes life easier if no-one asks nosy questions. 'So one minute there I was, subbing around Brillig Reef; the next thing I know, some giant sea-toad has eaten my house and I'm caught up in a galactic conspiracy! From gently coaxing an ageing submersible around the shores of K-L to piloting a state-of-the-art Javelin starship may seem like a big jump: but when it looks as if the future course of human civilization is under threat, it's a hell of a motivator.' Perseus Spur delivers everything readers have come to expect from worldwide bestseller Julian May: galactic scope, high adventure, humour, and complex political intrigue in a finely worked balance. *** Quantity Available: 1.
