Chasing the Dime

Chasing the Dime by Michael Connelly, published by Little, Brown and Company in 2002. This hardcover is a true first edition, first printing, with the stated First Edition designation and complete 10-to-1 number line on the copyright page. The original dust jacket is included.

Michael Connelly has flat signed the title page beneath his printed name. No dedication, recipient name, or other personalization is visible, making this an appealing signed copy for collectors of Connelly’s work and modern crime fiction.

This standalone technological crime thriller follows scientist and entrepreneur Henry Pierce, whose newly assigned telephone number draws him into the disappearance of a woman he has never met. The mystery combines Connelly’s crime storytelling with themes involving nanotechnology, obsession, and the dangers of following an apparently accidental lead.

The dust jacket remains bright and displays well, with light edge and corner wear, several small surface nicks or puncture-like marks on the rear panel, and minor rubbing or creasing along the rear fore-edge. The photographed title and copyright pages appear clean and legible, apart from the author’s signature. Please review the photographs closely for the copy-specific condition.
