Editor's Note:
Psychologist and occasional police consultant Anna McColl needs a holiday... But murder never takes a vacation…A middle-aged man is found bludgeoned to death in nearby Leigh Woods and psychologist Anna McColl is shocked at the violence of the crime. Little does she realize that she’s about to get involved in the case herself …After delivering a set of psychology lectures, one of the attendees insists that Anna come around to his place and talk to his wife, Geraldine. Geraldine lives near Leigh Woods and after the murder found that she was too terrified to leave her house, an acute case of agoraphobia. Against her better judgement, Anna is drawn into Geraldine’s case. She has no connection with the victim, so why has the incident affected her so profoundly?
