Reader's note

However fearful the thought of murder may be, and however horrible it is in fact, murder does exercise a strange fascination over men’s minds so that paradoxically they are quite ready to see it enacted on the stage or screen, or even to take part in a mock murder as a party game. Sir Hubert Handesley was famous for his house-parties; indeed he had every right to be, for he planned these occasions with as much care and forethought as a producer would the presentation of a new play. Nigel Bathgate considered himself rather a lucky young man, when through his cousin Charles, who was also to be of the party, he secured an invitation to one of these week-ends.
