A Woman in Exchange

New York: The Macaulay Company. Good. (c.1936). First Edition. Hardcover. (no dust jacket) [front hinge cracked but not split, a bit of scarring to both pastedowns (from label removal?), light spotting to rear cover, soiling to edges of text block]. "A Russian prince, an English dancer, an ex-guardsman, and an American heiress fall under the shadow of an ancient tradition and share in the terrifying events which follow the theft of a miniature, [which] disappears while Prince Paul is showing it to a group of friends in London." The plot thickens when the action of the novel switches to America, where the prince encounters the heiress, who's wearing the selfsame miniature! .
