Two fascinating investigations of Mrs. Bradley - a psychoanalyst and a brilliant amateur detective! An eccentric old millionaire has invented a very original way to choose an heir worthy of taking over her fortune. It will be... the winner of family sports games that carefully copy the program of the ancient Greek Olympics. However, the tournament goes wrong when the body of a local tenant farmer, Longer, is discovered on the training ground, having died in an apparent violent manner. Does this wild murder have anything to do with the competition? Is one of the flock of young would-be Olympians – the old woman’s nephews – connected with him? Mrs. Bradley asks questions... Mrs. Bradley is investigating the long-forgotten case of the late Bella Foxley, who was once accused of murdering her relatives, but acquitted by the court. What really happened to Bella's rich aunt and her cousin, an eccentric paranormal investigator? Does the mysterious disappearance of two boys from a local juvenile colony, who were subsequently never found, either alive or dead, have anything to do with these deaths? Mrs. Bradley's only clue is Bella's diary. But can he be trusted?
