House of the Glimmering Light (Cover)

This book is so rare that I haven't been able to locate a copy yet. Published in 1943 and set in Connel Ferry (now Connel) near Oban in the west of Scotland, this was a spy story that Jane Shaw was reportedly very proud of. However, as it was a wartime story, it was never reissued, making it very hard to come by. But I'm sure I'll find a copy sooner or later.

  2. A copy just sold on eBay for £78.99. It was the first one I'd seen with a dustwrapper.
