The Case of the Lonely Lady by John Milne tells the story of Nancy Roberts, a 42-year-old unmarried woman who lives alone after her parents’ death. Although financially secure, she feels lonely and decides to take a holiday in Eastbourne. There she meets Henry Jones and his sister Isobel, who cunningly lure Nancy into marriage. However, their affection is nothing but a scheme to gain her wealth. Nancy, deeply in love, fails to see the truth until she becomes imprisoned in Henry’s warehouse. The sinister plan is uncovered when Bill Evans, a milkman, notices strange activity and informs detectives Terry Mason and Sheila Williams. Together with Bob Wilkinson and Gordon Burgess, they devise strategies to rescue Nancy from Henry and Isobel’s cruelty.
