Who killed Melissa and why? And who telephoned Guy Foster impersonating his dead wife at least an hour after she was strangled? The mystery deepens when another victim is found murdered in Guy's cottage after Guy receives another urgent, whispered phone call by someone sounding like Melissa. In the novelisation of his television series, Francis Durbridge keeps the reader guessing until the last page.
