Faith, Hope and Homicide

Rating:
Summary: Mystery...
Review: The Grail Foundation has sent a team to search for medicinal plants in uncharted regions of South America. At the very outset, one of the party's four scientists backs out. Then Louise Dench, the botanist, is seriously injured. Her husband, Robert Waugh, and Alastair Hope, the team leader, carry on into the jungle together. But Hope returns alone. Robert Waugh is dead. Soon after her return to Cornwall, Louise Dench's body is found after what appears to have been suicide, and Alastair Hope, the only survivor is left to explain the expedition's lack of success to the sponsor, a secretive charitable trust which has its headquarters at Arthur's Castle in Cornwall. But is Hope telling all he knows to the members of the Grail Foundation and in particular to expert sleuth Tamara Hoyland...?
