Who''s Calling?

Paperback | English

By (author): Helen McCloy

Who''s Calling? is the fifth book in Helen McCloy''s Dr Basil Willing Mystery series.

Wouldn''t you like to know what a poltergeist is?
The engagement of Archie, a young doctor, to night club artiste Frieda sets off a sequence of eerie and seemingly unexplainable events, all starting with a strange, cruel warning on the telephone.
As the supernatural mysteries continue, a shocking murder takes place - and that can''t be explained by a ghost.
Dr Basil Willing steps in to help the four people involved in these hauntings answer the question: Could I have committed a murder without knowing it?
