196723860New York: Avon Books VS20. Near Fine. 1967. First American Edition. Softcover. nice tight copy appears unread; light soiling and age-toning to covers tiny diagonal crease at lower right corner of front cover. Mass Market PB The first American publication of Roché's 1953 novel "an unofficial Bible for European youth" and maybe a few American youth as well -- printed in June 1967 which happened by design or not to coincide not with the U.S. release of Francois Truffaut's film version that had already happened in 1962 but rather with the Summer of Love. I'm sure this edition found its way into more than a few backpacks being toted around the Haight by hippies dreaming of free-love threesomes. . Avon Books (VS20) paperback books

193714666New York: Dodd Mead and Company. Good. 1937. First Edition. Hardcover. no dust jacket moderately worn copy half of ffep torn away light dampstain on rear cover spine turned front jacket text glued to front pastedown. Scarce crime novel in which a detective and an orchestra leader team up to solve the murder of a notorious gamber/gangster. "A vivid picture of New York after dark. Gangsters chorus girls and society looking for a thrill move through these pages adding color and character to a story that races along on a high note of exciting suspense." Touted on the jacket blurb as the author's "latest novel" omitting to mention that he had actually been dead for a couple of years since February 1935. This didn't seem to put much of a crimp in his output however this being the fifth of six novels to appear posthumously -- and the only one to bear his wife's name as co-author which would seem to imply that the others had already been finished at the time of his demise. .

To him through the mail comes a letter from the gold-digger district of New York saying that the writer is a young woman who will if he advances to her $25000.00 guarantee to marry a millionaire and become an established member of society within two years. He tears up the letter with a weary smile but the nerve of the girl intrigues him and almost against his will he calls upon her at her one room apartment in a west side hotel. She proves to be a decent and respectable young woman apparently well born with great beauty and charm but she is so clear so definite so cold-blooded in her plan that it appeals to his sporting instinct to treat the matter like a bet on a race course. He turns over the money to her with the distinct understanding that she is in now way to give him any quid pro quo - and then you are started on a most amusing story the outcome of which is too good to tell. Suffice it to say that the girl makes good in the two years by methods open to anyone without either any great stroke of luck or any improbable action. And the quid pro quo - well - !
