Frozen Hearts.

rare three-decker A very good three-decker first edition of this Hubin-listed Victorian novel. This work would probably be best classified as a mystery novel, with its fair share of crime detection courtesy of the story's primary protagonist, the Vicomte d'Harmontal. Exceptionally rare in such condition. First edition, first impression; 3 vols, 8vo; a few leaves in vols I III with some marginal tears and chips from careless opening, vol.III title browned but overall internally very good; publisher's blind-tooled brown cloth, lettered in gilt to spines, a little minor rubbing to extremities but overall a very good, sharp set. Not in Sadleir; Hubin, p.11, listed as of undetermined status
