What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Black Mountain, North Carolina - a sleepy little town where the local police deal with one homicide a year, if they are unlucky, and where people are still getting used to the idea of locking their doors at night. Hardly the place for a serial killer to be stalking, but that seems the most likely scenario when the corpse of eleven-year-old Emily Steiner is found, with a bullet wound to the head and several small sections of skin removed from her frail abused body. The execution of the crime bears disturbing similarities to the recent murder of young Eddie Heath in Virginia, and Dr. Kay Scarpetta, the Chief Medical Examiner on that case, is called in to bring her forensic skills to bear on this latest atrocity. Fighting the natural assumption that Emily's murderer is also the man who killed Eddie, Scarpetta's instinct for the unusual is rudely awakened when another body is found.
