The Bone Vault

The Bone Vault by Linda Fairstein, published by Scribner in 2003. This hardcover mystery is from the first Scribner edition and is identified by its number line as a third printing. The dust jacket is included and is protected in a removable clear plastic cover.

This Alexandra Cooper legal mystery moves through the world of New York museums after a contemporary body is discovered inside an ancient sarcophagus. The investigation draws together public prosecutors, museum institutions, cultural treasures, and Manhattan crime, giving the novel a distinctive behind-the-scenes museum setting.

The title page is personally inscribed and signed by Linda Fairstein, with a message referring to a tour of her favourite Manhattan museums. The inscription is dated November 23, 2003. An original promotional postcard for Fairstein’s novel The Kills is also included.

Very Good overall, with light visible shelf and edge wear. The dust jacket remains under its removable clear protector, and the photographed copyright page is legible without obvious annotations. Please review the photographs for the personalized inscription, postcard, printing information, and copy-specific condition.
