AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Two Australian girls beg a story from Miss Hartley who tells them a ghostly murder story from her youth in England. A stay at a country cottage is shortended by her vision of a murder, and the owner's enquiries into the whereabouts of his former tenants reveal a murder and 10 years unfounded blackmail. Structurally irrelevant, Australian introduction; story intricate. (PB)
