Mystic River

by Dennis Lehane

Mystic River by Dennis Lehane, published by William Morrow in 2001. This hardcover is a first edition and first printing, with “FIRST EDITION” and the complete number line ending in 1 present on the copyright page. ISBN 0-688-16316-5. The book retains its dust jacket and has deckled-edge pages.

Flat signed by Dennis Lehane in blue ink on an interior title page, with no inscription or personalization visible. Mystic River is Lehane’s dark, Boston-set psychological crime novel about three childhood friends drawn back together by murder, trauma, suspicion, and the lasting consequences of the past.

The novel won the 2002 Massachusetts Book Award for fiction and the 2002 Dilys Award. It was later adapted as the acclaimed 2003 film directed by Clint Eastwood. The story is noted for combining a tense murder investigation with themes of family, loyalty, vengeance, justice, and buried trauma.

Very Good overall, with light shelf and edge wear visible on the dust jacket, including mild corner and upper-edge wear. The photographed interior pages appear clean and legible, without obvious writing, foxing, tears, or stains in the areas shown. Please check all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description and show the actual copy offered.
