I've spent a lot of my youth poking through used bookstores and turned up a lot, but not that particular title. It didn't seem particularly rare or anything---it just never turned up. Somehow I still regret not finding it---the idea sounded interesting and appealing---though, these days, I'm probably not motivated enough to follow the link above and buy it. (Besides, I have the fixed idea that used copies of a book should be half the original cover price---comes from working in one of those used bookstores.) “Shadow on the Hearth” was one of those books that, it seems, I heard a lot about, but never turned up a copy to read.
