Book Description
Budding author Ronald West is married to lovely heiress Helen. He has decided it is imperative he travel to Central Africa to carry out research for his new novel. He is so obsessed with this idea that his wife decides not to tell him her own news. On the return journey Ronald, who has been feverishly writing as he travels, stops in Leipzig and purchases a small organ which his wife has requested for their local church. He is also smitten by an old violoncello which he purchases for £150. He also falls into the clutches of the dastardly Aubrey Treherne, Helen's cousin and former suitor, whom his wife has told him not to trust. Ronald, behaving in an increasingly strange way, returns home where he appears to his wife totally obsessed with the cello and insensitive to the news she has sent him by letter. After a weird psychic experience, Ronald comes to believe he is a Upas tree which, legend has it, is an African tree that alters the psyche when one sleeps under it. He suffers complete mental collapse and is only rescued by his medical friend, Dick Cameron. After further misunderstandings, everything resolves joyously on Christmas Eve.
