Title: Follow a Shadow
Description: When Harriet Jones arrives, late at night, at the lonely Spanish villa left to her by her seemingly penniless godfather, she disturbs an intruder who was hiding in one of the bedrooms. Her godfather's friends and acquaintances all come under suspicion when she reads a letter he has left for safe keeping with a Spanish lawyer, indicating that either in the house, or on the land around it, there is some object of value. She is attracted to both a neighbouring landowner, Don Luis Montalba, and Cay Martin, a geologist, with whom she spends Easter in Seville. Seville is beautiful and filled with crowds who have come to participate in the famous Feria and the sinister Procession of the Penitents, a procession in which a man is killed—a man whose uncle once owned the villa which now belongs to Harriet.
