    Signed and inscribed by John Welcome to an 'Anthony', along with accompanying typed letter. The book is in fine condition.

A line of holes runs through the back cover, and there is a section of the top of the back cover that has disappeared.

About the book

Michael Ramsay, who had served a sentence on a manslaughter charge (a false conviction) comes out of prison to be buried alive in a small village in Ireland. But the appearance of the disturbing Stephanie revives his longing for his old world, and attacks against his life force him to protect it and to clear his name.
