INCOMING

  • Nina Kiriki Hoffman, Spirits That Walk in Shadow.
  • Helen MacInnes, Assignment in Brittany.  Espionage.  This one is a semi-beat-up copy of the second Pocket Book printing from 1943.  MacInnes was once one of the most popular suspense writers going but I suspect that few people read her books today.
  • W. Somerset Maugham, The Beachcomber. A "drunken, dissolute man, and a woman missionary who wanted to 'save' him from the things he loved best:  native women, and jungle wine"...Standard Maugham. This one is a Dell 10 Cent reprinting and retitling of Maugham's short story "The Vessel of Wrath,"  with a cover by Ralph De Soto.
  • David Morrell, The Totem. The revised edition of Morrell's first horror novel.
