Mysterious Vanishings Fill London Resort Tale
Pauline Mallingate has been missing for 18 months with her mother and sister in contact via a Paris forwarding address. Henry Emerson, her wealthy stepfather, also vanished from a summer resort. Dr. Julian Emerson persuades the women to leave the resort for a strange house in the country, keeping them imprisoned. Ellen Storey relays the tale from The Moat near Yorkshire where a tense scene unfolds with Pauline Creswold, a young mistress, her stubborn housekeeper, and a French-Italian cook guarding secrets. The narrative follows Miss Northwood’s pursuit and Ellen’s account of events and threats as clues surface.
