[Crime fiction] FIRST EDITION. Octavo (19 x 13cm), pp.[xxii]; 285; [1], blank. Publisher's purple cloth lettered in gilt to spine. Contents clean, no inscriptions, backstrip gently sunned. A fine, fresh copy without the jacket. F. Tennyson Jesse was an English journalist, author, criminologist, and a war correspondent in Belgium during the Great War. She wrote the novel Moonraker (1927), the title for which Noel Coward pointed out had been used already to his friend Ian Fleming while writing his third James Bond novel. Tennyson Jesse may have already been in the mind of Fleming when he named a character Solange (the eponymous female detective from the present book) in Casino Royale (1953). This copy is from the collection of Fleming bibliographer Jon Gilbert (pencil ownership within). Gilbert p.91. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 69999
