Middle-aged, struggling to recover from the shock of her husband divorcing her to marry a younger (and pregnant) woman, Nina happily falls in with Priscilla's idea to house-sit for her while she and her husband visit South Africa. When the phone rings on her first night in the Blunts' Berkshire manor house she expects it to be one of her duaghters, but when she lifts the receiver no-one speaks. All Nina hears is a shuddering sigh. As the calls persist Nina fears she has attracted an unwelcome suitor - or is it the man who is brutally murdering women in a nearby village? Or could it be one and the same person?. THE COST OF SILENCE - Norman Widnes was the kindest nurse his invalid wife could wish for, but then Norman was so pleasant to everyone - a blameless shopkeeper in a quiet town. The murder of Emma Widnes shocked everyone, and soon skeletons could be heard rattling in the most unlikely cupboards. CRIME IN QUESTION - With her customary skill, Margaret Yorke weaves an enthralling web of suspense and tension out of seemingly ordinary and unrelated events. Denis is living on the edge of society: neglected and unwanted, he scrapes by on his earnings as an odd-jobber. His is the sort of desperation that will tip into lawlessness at the drop of a monkey-wrench. A chance encounter with Len, inmate of the local open prison, enables Densi to prove himself as the accessory to a cunningly contrived crime ... which ends in murder and has Denis running for his life. *** Quantity Available: 1.
