Run for Doom

The book is in fair condition, typical for a paperback of its age. The cover shows signs of wear, including creases and minor edge scuffing, reflecting its vintage status. The spine is intact, though it exhibits some creasing from previous readings. The pages are yellowed, consistent with age, but remain fully legible. There is no dust jacket, as expected for a paperback. ##

This paperback edition, identifiable by its vibrant cover art and typical Signet branding, offers a snapshot of mid-20th-century crime storytelling.
