London, Macmillan. 1996, First. (ISBN: 033364994x). Hard Cover, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A Fine unmarked copy with Fine dustjacket which is not price clipped. Detective Sergeant Jack Stallworthy has been accepting backhanders for most of his career. Lily, the pretty wife he deeply loves, dreams of retirement on the paradise island of Ko Samui but Jack will happily settle for a bungalow in Devon. Until, that is, influential businessman Emslie Warnaby offers him Ko Samui on a plate. Or, rather, first class air tickets plus the deeds of ownership to the Calm Seas Hotel. All Jack has to do in return is to steal an incriminating file from the Fraud Investigation office at police headquarters - which is, he discovers, as secure as Fort Knox. As Warnaby's deadline grows ever nearer - and Lily ever more impatient for her life in paradise - Jack plunges deeper and deeper into crime. And soon there is no going back. S. Near Fine/Near Fine.
