I am reading Snow Blind at the moment. No problem with the text Its a British hardback published by Michael Joseph. they are part of the Penguin group so its no suprise that on the dust jacket It says:
Also By P J Tracy in Penguin Paperback

Want To Play?
Live Bait
Dead Run

Notice how there isn't a touchstone for Want to Play? that is I suspect because it is also called something else.

A USA edition would list

Monkeewrench
Live Bait
Dead Run

Yes that works still thats what they call it in another country. The publisher don't sell or advertise Monkeewrench here. but I open it up and see.

Also By P J Tracy
Monkeewrench
Live Bait
Dead Run

Damn, Maybe they have put a British wrapper round the american edition. Nope the publishing info is clear published printed and typeset in the UK by people who can't even be bothered to remember the names of the books they publish. If they cant get it right what chance do readers have?

I only noticed one other error but you will have to read my review for that.

Want to Play? is published by Penguin in paperback in the UK.

Are you saying it listed both Monkeewrench and Want to Play? in different places of the same book? (Just trying to get an clear picture.)
