Produktbeschreibung

While travelling in India, novelist John Waring gave a lift to a strange-dressed, all-knowing native who called himself Jassy. And it was no accident that on his return to England he found himself drawn to an old farmhouse on Bodmin Moor where, together the Maclain family, he witnessed eerie, inexplicable events which defied comprehension.
What might be the connection between the stone circles on the Moor and the terrifying phenomena Waring experienced at the house? Between an Indian djinn and a remote Cornish farmhouse? Between the Maclains and alien beings from another time and place? Between earthly beliefs and a whole new way of being?

John Richard Newton Chance was born in Streatham Hill, London, in 1911, the son of Dick Chance, a managing editor at the Amalgamated Press. He studied to become a civil engineer, and then took up quantity surveying, but gave it up at 21 to become a full-time writer. He wrote for his father's titles, including "Dane, the Dog Detective" for Illustrated Chips, and a number of stories for the Sexton Blake Library and The Thriller Library. He went on to write over 150 science fiction, mystery and children's books and numerous short stories under various names, including John Lymington, John Drummond, David C. Newton, Jonathan Chance and Desmond Reid. Including 20+ SF potboilers, adding that he "made a steady income by delivering thrillers to Robert Hale (the UK publisher) at a chapter a week". His novel Night of the Big Heat was adapted to television in 1960 and to film, starring Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, in 1967.
