The Alienist

Book-club copies of this title are common and are the single most frequent misdescription in the trade — club copies are routinely listed as "Book Club First Edition", which is not a first edition at all. Separate them on the copyright page, which lacks the "FIRST EDITION" statement; the standard club tells also apply, with a blind stamp to the rear board, no price at the jacket flap, and a smaller trim with lighter boards.
