This handsome first edition of James Lee Burke's thriller Clete is in very good condition rather than new, owing to a small issue: moisture staining to the bottom of the front board and the title page, present when the book arrived new from Amazon and almost certainly the result of something in transit or storage rather than handling. The mark does not reach or affect the text, and the pages throughout are otherwise crisp, clean, and entirely unmarked — but it is visible, and I want any buyer to know exactly what they're getting before they purchase. First edition, first printing. First Grove Atlantic hardcover edition, June 2024. Published by Atlantic Monthly Press, an imprint of Grove Atlantic, New York. Clete brings series regular Clete Purcel to centre stage for the first time as the former cop and now licensed investigator confronts a case involving a niece's death, a long-ago betrayal, and a danger that reaches all the way back into his own past.
