IN THE BALANCE by Patricia Wentworth hardcover book with original dust jacket dated 1941. Assumed first edition published by Lippincott. There is some discoloration, a pencil mark on the outside edge of the dust jacket, some writing on the back of the dust jacket, a torn dust jacket, spots on the cloth, and other wear + tear. Overall, this octavo book is in good condition. I have included several photographs to show the exact condition of this book.
