Inside, one finds 211 pages of text, detailing this fascinating mystery novel, in which a gunman shoots the passengers of a bus and kills protagonist Detective Beck's own protege, Detective Åke Stenström. This copy is in very good condition - other than an ex-libris paste-down on the front free endpaper, this copy's original dustjacket and the book itself have been well-preserved with few notable blemishes or imperfections.
