The novel by Hugh Walpole adapted for radio by Antony Kearey
with Peter Marinker, David March, Martin Jarvis and Caroline John

What did it mean? Why had he a clutch of terror as though someone was whispering to him that he must turn tail and run? Nothing could be more lovely than that town basking in the mellow afternoon light, and yet he was afraid at the sight of it - afraid so that his content and happiness of a moment ago were all gone.
