Scarhaven Keep is a thirty-one-chapter mystery by the British crime writer J. S. Fletcher, opening in the North Sea town of Norcaster during the rehearsals of Richard Copplestone's new play, when the famous actor Bassett Oliver walks out of his hotel after the dress rehearsal and is never seen again. His business manager Stafford waits with growing alarm; his brother, Rear-Admiral Sir Cresswell Oliver, Baronet, comes down from London; and the young playwright, who was the last man to speak with him, finds himself drawn into the search. The trail runs along the coast to Scarhaven, a village of grey rock and grey sea at the foot of a cliff crowned by the Keep, the old tower of the Greyles, and there Copplestone and Sir Cresswell find a household built on imposture. The Squire who calls himself Marston Greyle is not Marston Greyle: the real man died in Bristol, was buried there under the name of Mark Grey, and the tombstone that is supposed to prove his identity carries dates that cannot be true — while the man wearing his name is Martin Andrius, brother of the American-Norwegian yacht captain Andrius, whose boat lies off the Scarhaven coast. Behind the false Squire stands Peter Chatfield, the estate agent whom the village calls Peeping Peter, who has been selling the Greyle land and the Greyle securities by private treaty and who has buried nine boxes of the family's gold where the poacher Zachary Spurge saw him dig. Against them stand Audrey Greyle, the old Squire's cousin and the true heir of Scarhaven, her widowed mother Mrs. Valentine Greyle, the family solicitor Petherton, Mr. Vickers of Norcaster, the elderly actor-lawyer Dennie who proves a signature, and the detective who has come down disguised as the Reverend Gilling with his London ally Swallow. A greeting in a shop doorway, a telegram from New York, an old playbill of a forgotten touring company, a woman's footprints in the sand, a greengrocer's cart, a steam yacht that vanishes and returns...
