Epitaph for a Spy
London: Folio Society, 2013.
Folio Society Edition. Full blue cloth blocked with a dramatic shadow-and-silhouette design by Geoff Grandfield. Original plain black slipcase. A pristine copy.
First published in 1938, Ambler’s novel revolutionized the spy genre by replacing the "super-spy" with Josef Vadassy, an ordinary man who is caught in a web of international intrigue after a simple film-processing error. This Folio edition celebrates Ambler's ability to ground geopolitical stakes in a claustrophobic, character-driven mystery.
Price: $60.00
