This first edition is near fine, pages are tight and unmarked, the book is tight, square, and unmarked. The dust jacket is near fine, blue cloth boards, and bright gilt lettering on the spine of the book. Fourteen-year-old Susie Salmon is already in heaven when we meet her. It’s 1973 and her disappearance shocked a world that still believed such horrors were rare. In the clear, tender voice of a precocious teen, Susie recounts the surreal world she now inhabits, which resembles a perfect playground. From this place, she watches her grieving family: her father hunting for the truth, her sister taking bold risks, and her little brother building a fort in her memory. What unfolds is a moving, suspenseful tale of love, loss, and healing. The novel was later adapted into a film starring Saoirse Ronan as Susie.
