The Ka of Gifford Hillary is a story concerned with the greatest of all mysteries: what happens after death? With Sir Gifford Hillary and Wing Commander Johnny Norton involved in plans to counter the might of Soviet Russia, interest soon centres on the evil Lady Ankaret and the tragedy which occurred at Longshot Hall, South Hampshire, on the night of the 9th September. A victim is struck down, and from that moment onwards the events which follow seem, at first, fantastic and unbelievable—but are later realised to be entirely logical. What does happen after death? And why should Sir Gifford find himself in prison, on trial for his life?
