London: Hard Case Crime, 2018. 1st thus. Softcover. Very Good/None. Robert McGinnis. Softcover, colorful wraps with a retro-style illustration by Robert McGinnis. It begins on Death Row, with a condemned man refusing the services of the lawyer assigned to defend him. It begins with a beautiful woman dead, murdered—Vassilia Caroline Baird, known to all simply as V. That’s where this extraordinary novel begins. But the story it tells begins years earlier, on a struggling farm in the shadow of the Great Depression and among the brawling "cat skinners" of Southern California, driving graders and bulldozers to tame the American West.

In an archival mylar wrapper. A signed copy of Oakley Hall's scarce second novel. [We made some effort to make an educated guess as to the identity of Nanna. His grandmothers were ruled out, as both were deceased prior to 1950, as was his wife's maternal grandmother. If it was a grandmother, it could have been his wife's paternal grandmother, Mary Ulysses (nee Johnston) Edinger (1865-1953), or alternatively his wife's step-mother's mother whose identity we could not confirm.]
