ISBN 0679431977

First Edition / First Printing. Fine in Fine Dust Jacket. 293 pages. The author's breakthrough debut novel. Now considered a contemporary classic in the mysterty/thriller genre. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents April Smith's "North of Montana". Her first book. "Smith has produced a crime thriller distinguished by an unflagging pace, authoritative use of detail, and an appealing heroine. In vigorous, literate prose, Smith delivers characters of depth and dimension who inhabit the wildly diverse worlds of Southern California, each rendered with a cinematic eye. Wisely leaving some ends untied, Smith resolves the central themes of this seamless narrative in this smashing story" (Publishers Weekly). An absolute "must-have" title for April Smith collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black pen on the title page by April Smith. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is now collectible. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright, a pristine beauty. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant American novelists of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER APRIL SMITH TITLES IN OUR CATALOG). ISBN 0679431977.
