I’m not able to find any other signed copy of this book on the Internet. The only unsigned book I found costs £ 35 +shipping from the UK.
The book is very good, square and tight. It is unmarked, with clean pages free of inscriptions and has been signed by the author directly on the title page. The pages show the normal yellowing due to ageing with very faint foxing to the edges of the page block. It has slight curl to the top and bottom of the spine. The dustjacket is very good and unclipped (£14.99). The red graphics of the spine show some fading and there is very faint water mark along the length of bottom edge. There are three small repaired tears (bottom edge of front face, top of spine, bottom edge where it folds around the back board).
IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT AND ERNIE BOWLES IS STEPPING OUT-- TO DIE.
Ernie's big fantasy is that his blind date with a blonde divorcee will end with the two of them back at the farm, cosily shacked up. Alas, Sunday morning finds Ernie on the cold kitchen floor, all alone and strangled.
A simple case of kiss-and-kill? Perhaps, but Inspector Stephen Ramsay can find no one in the entire village who liked the man, certainly not the young couple who rent his caravan nor the respectable folk on the adjoining farm. Another strangling--the even more puzzling murder of quiet housewife Val McDougal--compounds the confusion, leading Ramsay to the local centre for alternative healing, where both victims were well known.
Meanwhile, a murderer quietly observes the hunt, as Ramsay pursues a case in which the astonishing finale will catch even the canniest reader by the throat
