Manciple--a rude outsider, unwelcome in the village of Vangmoor--targets him as the prime suspect.

After Nesta mysteriously disappears, Alice vows to find her--and discovers a tangled web of secrets among those she trusted most.
Description

Description
The double: Peter Milton becomes involved with Zoe, the apparant "double" of his girlfriend Lisa. Can Lisa survive the superstition predicting her death? And is Zoe really what she seems?
