Description: THE SNIPER He smiled and squeezed the trigger. The silencer made a soft exhaling sound. He saw the girl lean over and flip on the radio to the eight o'clock news. The duplex round, at a velocity of 2,800 feet per second, pierced two neat holes through the safety glass where her head had been. The startled girl panicked and hit the brake. He groped furiously through his pocket and ex- tracted an orange-tipped incendiary tracer round. The girl stared through the perforated windshield as the car slowed down. The bullet streaked orange down the length of the highway, passed through the license plate, and found the gas tank. The beautiful Jaguar with the beautiful girl in it erupted into an orange ball of flames.... The above text is an exerpt of the vintage 1989 first edition paperback titled "The Sniper" by Jack Cannon. The Sniper originally was published in 1974 and is a thriller novel by American author Nelson DeMille. It was DeMille's first published novel. The Sniper introduces character NYPD Sergeant, Joe Ryker. Like the other books in the Joe Ryker series, it was re-published in 1989 with the author as "Jack Cannon." The book has a stain on the bottom of the text block that is prominent but does not distract from the actual text of the book. The cover has some wear from use and handling. The spine only has one evident crease and is in solid shape. The text block itself has no writing except for a name written inside the front cover. With the stain and cover issues the book would be minimum good to very good condition. See photos of the defects as well as some pages showing their condition.
