About this ebook

Deception Most Foul takes the reader through the manner in which Alzheimers disease first presented in Annie Attwood, a fit, elderly lady. It describes in easily followed descriptive terms, the slow progression of this illness over several years as it eroded the quality of her life, and the distress caused to her nearest and dearest as the illness became more clearly apparent.
To be confronted with a malady of this magnitude is particularly stressful, but all that ensued was far worse, when her family discovered that the woman Annie had entrusted to her care had successfully schemed to rob them of their considerable inheritance.
Step by step, we are taken through the costly legal confrontations that ensued during the following eighteen years, including two major high court battles. The surprising twists and turns revealed in this saga as the tale unfolds are all the more amazing with the realisation that this is an account of unimagined cunning and greed that is based entirely on a true story. All names, dates, and private locations are a total fiction although this chronicle of events is factual.
The reader may well find these narrative portions will resonate, awakening memories of events affecting an elderly person they presently know, or once knew years ago.

Author

Arnold Powell

Arnold Powell, MB, ChB, LRCP, MRCS, was born in central London and graduated from Sheffield University Faculty of Medicine in 1957. His experiences since then have included medical training and practice in hospitals in a mining community in Yorkshire, Barnet, Baltimore, Maryland, USA, and Saskatchewan, Canada, where he also held the post of HM coroner. He returned to London and settled into general medical practice in North London in 1963. In 1971, he and his wife, June, established Springdene Nursing and Care Homes, which today provides excellent care for a large number of senior citizens in four modern, purpose-built nursing and care homes in London. Following prostate cancer treatment and a coronary artery bypass graft, he retired from primary health care in 1996 and began a second career as an author. He and his wife have lived in East Finchley for more than forty years, while close by live their three children and nine grandchildren. He and his wife are avid theatre-goers while Dr. Powell’s personal hobbies include interests in photography, genealogy, and gardening. He is a member of the University College School Centennial choir, where his son and daughter-in-law also sing.
