DO EVIL IN RETURN

With an assured sense of tension, this tells of Charlotte Keating, a doctor, whose love for a married man- Levis Ballard-makes her vulnerable to the appeal of a patient- Violet O'Gorman-caught in a pregnancy. Wanting to help Violet once it is too late and her body is washed in on the beach, Charlotte cannot forget the dead girl, carries on a probe which parallels that of Jim Easter, a police lieutenant, finds that her relationship with Lewis is no longer immune, and when three others die, is faced with the complicity of the man she had loved... A very special quality of suspense which is obsessive and exclusive.
