House Guest

By Francis Durbridge
November 2009

This exciting thriller concerns Robert and Stella who learn that their son has been kidnapped - not for ransom but in order that they will allow one of the kidnappers safe haven in their house. Two policemen arrive with news that one of the kidnappers has been murdered - but very soon it is obvious that these two, and much else, is not as it seems.


The action takes place in the living room of a house belonging to Charles & Stella Dury.
