Two O'Clock, Eastern Wartime.

JOHN DUNNING

Publication: Scribner, 2001, New York

First edition. One of 26 copies containing two pages of the book's original working manuscript bound in with handwritten author corrections, edited and signed by John Dunning. As new, bound in quarter leather and marbled paper over boards. Housed in the original cloth and silk marbled slipcase. This is copy "E." Jack Dulaney escapes from a California prison and heads for New Jersey to help his ex-girlfriend, Holly. He uncovers a conspiracy that resulted in the death of Holly's father, and now he's in pursuit of the killer. The author's knowledge of old-time radio and how he cleverly winds the plot around this background makes for an not only an excellent read, but also a portrait of a vanished era. Splendid quality for the writing, the book, and the slipcase. Impressive.
