'Already it looked as if the police were up against a
carefully planned and
cleverly executed murder, and, what was more, a murder
without a corpse!’
Two brothers, John and William Rother, live together at
Chalklands Farm in
the beautiful Sussex Downs. Their peaceful rural life is
shattered when
John Rother disappears and his abandoned car is found.
Has he been
kidnapped? Or is his disappearance more sinister –
connected, perhaps, to
his growing rather too friendly with his brother’s wife?
Superintendent
Meredith is called to investigate – and begins to
suspect the worst when
human bones are discovered on Chalklands farmland. His
patient, careful
detective method begins slowly to untangle the clues as
suspicion shifts
from one character to the next. This classic detective
novel from the 1930s
is now republished for the first time, with an
introduction by the
award-winning crime writer Martin Edwards.
