PROFESSOR ALISTAIR DIRKE thought himself a reasonable man. He tould scarcely acknowledge the suspicion that was beginning to grow in his • mind every time he saw his wife Rose with his friend Paul Eckleston. Paul seemed to be there very often these days. . . .
Yet soon a still more terrible suspicion was to grow and spread through the little community of Rollway, where the Dirkes had hitherto lived in peace with their neighbours. A man was murdered and a valuable collection of coins disappeared.
Once again, Elizabeth Ferrars has created a realistic world of interesting, ordinary people whose lives are disrupted by events that are violent yet credible. She has posed a problem that is original and fascinating.
