8vo. 309, [1] pp. Illustrated orange publisher's cloth, lozenge cover art of Queen Mary ocean liner at sale, blue lettering, w/ Lippincott mystery logo (minor shelfwear, slight rubbing, slight bumping & wear to couple corners), w/ d.j. striking Art Deco cover art by Singer w/ Queen Mary liner looming in the background under construction (edgewear & creasing head & foot of spine, fore-edges), still VG/VG copy. First American edition, of one of the earliest and best shipboard ocean liner mysteries, featuring the intersection of Superintendent William Stevens of the C.I.D., and Inspector Pierre Allain of the French Surete Nationale. Leo Harris notes in the foreword for the 1992 Black Dagger reprint that this work is "really a floating Grand Hotel replete with interlocking dramas, romances, and comedies." Graeme (1900-1982) who wrote under several pseudonyms, including David Graeme, Roderic Hastings, Peter Bourne, and others wrote 13 Stevens & Allain mysteries beginning in 1931 with "A Murder of Some Importance." Very scarce in original dustjacket with the American quite different fro the British Hutchinson 1937 first. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 62110
