Fools' Gold (First Edition)
Stated First Edition of Dolores Hitchens' most famous crime novel, published in 1958, a Crime Club Selection. Fun interior jacket details hyping the book: "Mounting tension — Frightening acts — Wholesale evil — and a powerful, compelling story!" Fools' Gold inspired Jean-Luc Godard's French New Wave film Bande à part.
