London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1986. [Espionage novel] SECOND IMPRESSION. Octavo (24 x 16cm), pp.463. Publisher's blue quarter cloth lettered in gilt to the spine, with blue cloth over boards and red endpapers. With the typographic dust-jacket designed by Howard J. Shaw, priced at £9.95. Identical to the first, except for the absence of the red 'A' to the jacket spine. A little spotting to top edge, and some very light general handling. A fine copy.
