SYNOPSIS The return of Francis Gerard will be hailed with real pleasure by all those who followed his career as one of our most distinctive mystery writers and most persuasive yarn-spinners in the years before the war. No less welcome will be the return with his creator of that famous detective of fiction: the one and only Sir John Meredith. An ancient curse echoes down the centuries and lays its shadow across the household at High Perwyl, the Welsh Border Castle where John Meredith is trying to regain both physical and spiritual health after long and terrible war service coupled with cruel personal loss.
