HARMAN, Neal. Death and the Archdeacon
HARMAN, Neal. Death and the Archdeacon. London: Arthur Barker. 1949. 8vo. First edition. Publisher’s green cloth lettered in black to the spine, in the dust jacket designed by ‘Whyte’. A very good copy, the cloth relatively clean, a touch marked to backstrip, the binding tight and square, the textblock edges gently spotted, but the contents fine. The dust jacket unclipped (8s 6d net) with a handful of short tears and chips along the spine tips and corners, and a few closed tears. Small stain to centre of front panel, but a nice example.
The second in a short series of novels by Harman about the exploits of ‘a post-war organisation known as “Protection Ltd”, consisting of a retired colonel, a professor, a tough commando, and an attractive young lady, all of whom served together in the dangerous byways of war-time intelligence.’ [rear blurb]. In this case, it’s a race against the clock to catch a small team working on a bacteriological virus that could end human life. All of Harman’s books are uncommon in the jacket.
