Book Description
Excerpt from An Ordeal of Honor Ten miles to walk, and it will be dark in half an hour! She said aloud. Here's a unique opportunity for a Romantic Occurrence: why doesn't some one young and charming appear and pick me up '1 As if fate had overheard the challenge, there came at that moment, from behind a bend of the hills, the hoot of an approaching car. The young girl looked back, but with a doubtful aspect. Motoring people aren't nice except to other motorists, ' she re ected; they always might tow you up a hill, and they never do. Besides, with a disparaging glance at the road, which was little better than a cart track, the man at this wheel must be mad. As she said it, the motor swung round a corner and came into sight: a big open car in green and silver, the glare of its great lamps aming out like searchlights. Empty except for the man who drove, it came racing up the hill at top speed, with the ease of power held in restraint, till it was abreast of the bicycle: there it halted.

Book Description
A successful, middle-aged novelist with a case of 'bad nerves,' Gilbert Pinfold embarks on a recuperative trip to Ceylon. Almost as soon as the gangplank lifts, Pinfold hears sounds coming out of the ceiling of his cabin: wild jazz bands, barking dogs, loud revival meetings. He can only infer that somewhere concealed in his room an erratic public-address system is letting him hear everything that goes on aboard ship. And then, instead of just sounds, he hears voices. But they are not just any voices. These voices are talking, in the most frightening intimate way, about him!
