Hardcover. Zustand: Very Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Glassine Wrapper. Clarke Hutton (illustrator). First Edition/First Printing. John Wiltshire, a Scottish copra trader, arrives on the South Sea island of Falesá. He meets a rival trader named Case, who arranges for him to be "married" to a local girl named Uma in a ceremony designed to impress the natives but to be completely non-binding in the view of Europeans. He soon discovers that Uma has a taboo attached to her which causes all the other natives to refuse to do business with him, to Case's profit. He also hears of Case having been involved in the deaths of his previous competitors. It seems that Case's influence over the villagers stems from their belief that he has demonic powers, as a result of his simple conjuring tricks and tricks produced by imported technologies such as luminous paint and Aeolian harps.
