Produktbeschreibung

It was just a small, ordinary seaside town. But then strange things began to happen ... A strange, eerie feeling began to make itself felt among the people. Footprints appeared in the sand. Gates were opened as if by an invisible hand, furniture was knocked over ...
But these were only the forerunners. The ghostly appearances grew and spread, and then the deaths began. A full-scale invasion was in progress - from an enemy who could be behind you or by your side, but who never showed himself, even as a shadow.
And the one man who knew the secret of the invasion realized that things had gotten beyond his control.

Autorenporträt

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.
