Alfred A. Knopf,, New York:, 1934. Cloth. First edition.
Scarce early hard boiled novel. Intelligent guy stumbles into the underworld and becomes the leader of a mob. A very good copy, some mild dust soiling to beige cloth in a very good price clipped dust jacket, some rubbing to edges, corners and spine ends, foil coated cover shows some scratches. Very scarce in dust jacket.
