Grey Face / The Green Eyes of Bast

GREY FACE

Douglas Carey awakens from a dream of a dead grey face with piercing eyes only to discover that he has lost a fair amount of the evening. It's not long before he discovers that he has lost more than time, because the Foreign Office reports he has been working are missing as well. Could his loss of time be associated with the small figurine given to him by the mysteriously alluring Madame Sabinov? Has Carey been hypnotized in some way? With the help of Sir Provost and his friend Muir Torrington, Carey begins an investigation that leads them to the enigmatic M. de Trepniak. What is the power of the strange blue globe he keeps in a secret room? And what is the meaning of the grey face?

THE GREEN EYES OF BÂST

When lawyer Jack Addison is called upon to view the seemingly empty garage of the Red House, little could he know that the crate he viewed inside held the dead body of Sir Marcus. But later that evening, when the crate accidentally breaks open, the body is discovered-and on the crate is a painting of a green cat. Stranger still, Addison's beloved Isobel is implicated in Sir Marcus's death. Who is trying to cast blame on Isobel, and what is the meaning of the green figurine of a cat woman that is found at the scene of the crime? And more chillingly, what is the meaning of the two great eyes that Addison sees staring up at him from the garden... two glittering cat's eyes!
