Patrick Dawlish #6
Murder Most Foul
Felicity Deverall, Patrick Dawlish's fiancee, was missing, presumed kidnapped. The note had told Dawlish to go to the Ley Farm Cottage fast - and alone.
Dawlish hesitated; it could be a trap ... but he decided to go and find out and climbed into his car. He was teaching for his ignition key when he heard a voice through the open window; "Don't start your car. Don't start your car." Then a car drove off.
Puzzled, Dawlish sat holding the wheel, then he got out, walked to the front and lifted the bonnet. It was a small container, no bigger than a matchbox, but had Dawlish turned the ignition, it would have blown him to bits.
