When Morgan Astey arrives in the quiet Wiltshire village of St. Martin to pay his respects to his dearly departed brother-and to clear up the inevitable loose ends surrounding his sudden death-he soon discovers some surprises. For the late Edward Astey has not been laid finally to rest: his grave has been desecrated and his body is missing.
More than one local official believes the vandalism to be connected with the rites of Macumba, a voodoo ritual that brings back the dead to occupy bodies of the living. And this explanation certainly seems plausible when a local handyman begins assuming all the habits and characteristics of the deceased.
But somehow Astey is convinced that the whole episode is involved less with black magic than with the appearance in town of an aging multimillionaire: a man on the market for youth, a commodity even money can't buy.
