First published by Geoffrey Bles in the UK in 1968. Note that this edition follows the text of that original UK edition. A US edition published by Harper & Row the same year introduced additions to make it darker in tone to fit in with their "Harper Novel of Suspense" imprint. However, the additions were discarded with Berkley's 1988 US paperback and subsequent editions.
