Concerned for the well-being of her hostess and her curiosity piqued, Mrs. Bradley joins the expedition led by Sir Rudri Hopkinson. From Eleusis, via Epidaurus and Mycenae, in the company of some friends and Sir Rudri's children, here is our Beatrice on the stony and not always very safe roads of Greece. But can one play with old legends with impunity? "Mrs. Bradley is a psychological consultant to Scotland Yard; but this old eccentric is above all passionate about the occult and the paranormal, which gives her curious assets for unraveling the darkest cases.
