A Death for a Dreamer

Summary
Should residents be allowed to have pets? That's the burning question agitating the trustees of the Jamie Coralund Home for the Aged. Barrister Robert Forsythe is called on to mediate, but he's no fool and declines the honor. Instead, he sends his formidable secretary, Miss Sanderson, to deal with this tempest in a provincial teapot. — It might have ended there but for two things: a dog is poisoned and an old lady is smothered.
Miss Sanderson, ever sensitive to the ebb and flow of human passions, learns that the trustees - three middle-aged men and one timelessly beautiful woman - have known each other since childhood, the handpicked playmates of rich little Jamie Coralund. Jamie himself has been dead for thirty years. Or so everyone believes.
Miss S. suspects that, dead or alive, Jamie is somehow involved in present events, and that the sins of the past are making a return appearance....
