Item description
SPICE ISLAND MYSTERY
By Betty Cavanna
New York: William Morrow and Company, (1970).
First edition, SECOND printing.
Cover art by Joseph Cellini.
Nominated for the Edgar Award, this older young adult mystery features a seventeen year old Caribbean native girl, home for the summer before college, who becomes involved in a mystery involving corrupt land developers, and dangerous smugglers.
Nicely preserved vintage edition.
Very nearly fine in color illustrated, laminated linen boards with black and white titles to the front cover and to the spine, a touch of darkening to the spine, extra sturdy inner hinges bear a hint of age-toning, pages starting to tan as usual, cover art by Joseph Cellini.
