Description:
Dell, New York, 2007.. Very Good/Unknown. Shepard, Ernest H.. Octavo, softcover, light edgewear to cover and crease on back cover else VG in orange and yellow pictorial wraps. Another classic mystery from the master of the clever twist. On a summer's day in 1981, a two-year-old girl, Tamsin Hall, was abducted during a picnic at the famous prehistoric site of Avebury in Wiltshire. Her seven-year-old sister Miranda was knocked down and killed by the abductor's van. The girls were in the care of their nanny, Sally Wilkinson. One of the witnesses to this tragic event was David Umber, a Ph. D student who was waiting at the village pub to keep an appointment with a man called Griffith who claimed he could help Umber with his research into the letters of Junius, the eighteenth century polemicist who was his Ph. D subject. But Griffin failed to show up, and Umber never heard from him again. The two-year-old, Tamsin Hall, was never seen again either. 294 pp. plus notes on author and preview of coming book.
