Dragon's Claw.

PETER O'DONNELL

Publication: Souvenir Press, 1978, London

First edition. Light residue of a dime-sized sticker to top edge of front fly leaf, else fine square copy in dust jacket with three tiny spots of foxing to spine panel. Modesty rescues a man from the ocean while she's sailing, and he turns out to be Luke Fletcher, a genius artist who was reported dead several weeks earlier. Modesty and Willie get caught up in trying to figure out who dumped Fletcher into the ocean, why people are trying to kill him, and what they can do to protect him.
