Unusually Near-Fine Copy. Stemming from O'Flaherty's own political-activist experiences, this novel is an investigation of the mind and motives of a political murderer. A year following the publication Arthur Robinson directed the first eponymous film version, followed by another in 1935, directed by John Ford, a cousin of the author's.
