Description: A chance encounter with a stranger seems to offer Nina Crowther an escape from her problems. Middle-aged, struggling to recover from the shock of her husband divorcing her to marry a younger (and pregnant) woman, Nina happily agrees to house-sit while the owners visit South Africa. When the phone rings on her first night in the 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?
