Home Is The Prisoner

£6.00

Penguin 1st Edition, published 1965.

When Jim Singley returns to his home town of Athena after serving time for manslaughter, he stirs up old memories - and old hostilities. At his trial he had only escaped the electric chair on the evidence of Cleo, the thirteen-year-old daughter of the murdered man. Nobody is in a hurry to see him, least of all his son, his ex-wife, or his former mistress. But in the general attempt to settle old scores, the truth that has lain dormant for six years is gradually pieced together.

Condition grading: Very Good. Very light wear to spine. Minor crease to top of front cover. Usual page tanning for age. Binding tight. The photographs form part of the description.
