 From the back cover (Arrow 1974):
When Dr Pym, zoologist and amateur detective, accepts an invitation to spend Christmas at Peel Place, he anticipates a pleasant and uneventful holiday.
Events quickly prove him wrong. Against the bizarre backcloth of a mysterious Oriental maze, a collection of unlikely guests, an ancient family legend and an unmistakably modern attempt at blackmail, a murderous drama is being acted out.
A drama that has its beginning in the distant past — but its final act very much in the present.
