Plot

In the tranquil setting of a golf course, Bobby Jones and his companion Dr. Thomas stumble upon a chilling scene — a man, seemingly flung from a cliff onto the unforgiving rocks by the sea. His last breath carries a cryptic message, "Why didn't they ask Evans?" Identified by his sister, Mrs. Cayman, as Alex Pritchard, the deceased had recently returned to the UK from overseas, embarking on a walking tour. As Bobby and the spirited Lady Frances Derwent delve deeper into the enigma, they unearth a sinister underbelly of illicit narcotics at the heart of the conundrum. The shadow of suspicion lingers around Dr. Nicholson, the proprietor of a rustic clinic treating drug addicts nestled in the countryside. The puzzle further twists and turns, encompassing a contested will and a barrage of counterfeit or purloined identities. Yet, the elusive question remains: who is Evans, and what question has been left unasked? The intrigue of this mystery beckons, unraveling a story that blurs the line between appearance and reality, innocence and guilt, truth and deception.
