Faces of Evil

One night, an intruder wakes Jenny as he searches for the deed to a mine he believes belongs to him. Jenny and her housekeeper, Rachel, start a thorough search of the attic at Brambles, her family home, for any clue as to whether a mine exists. Strangely, a wing commander named James Williams arrives unexpectedly with a large cheque, stating the amount is her father’s share for the sale of the mine they jointly owned.

Jenny has no knowledge of a mine nor of James Williams. Oddly, James is unaware that Jenny’s father has died. During a continued search for evidence of the mine, Jenny discovers what appears to be a secret life led by her father. Having come across an intriguing photograph, she sets off with Piers, her best friend and solicitor, to try to learn about the existence of any mine and the significance the photo has to her family. Thus begins a sequence of terrible events in A Tale of Murder and Mystery.
