Collins London 1960. First Edition. Hardcover Original Cloth. Very Good Condition/No Dust Jacket. The corpse of a murdered man lay in the abandoned house with the wind howling through the neglected garden and rain beating against the windows. Was it a real corpse Was it even a real house Was it all part of a terrible nightmare Sandra McNeill twenty blonde and pretty arrives from Canada to claim her inheritance - a large dignified house in Chilton Square Bayswater left to her by her grandfather eccentric old Alexander McNeilI. But that first night Sandra experiences a nightmare of such macabre horror that on awakening she plans to instruct her grandfather's lawyer to sell. But she goes first to see her old friend Joy Everard - now married and the wife of that trouble-hunting young firebrand Norman Conquest. Sandra's breathless story of the dignified old house turning into a mouldering age-rotted ruin - only to change back to its grace and dignity in the morning - intrigues Conquest so much that he suspects work of the dirtiest and immediately goes into action - with results which we can anticipate.
