A “macabre” short story written by Daphne du Maurier and lost for more
than 70 years has been unearthed by an enthusiast.  The Doll, billed
as “a dark story of obsession and jealousy”, is the peculiar tale of a
man who becomes infatuated with a woman he meets at a party. He visits
her home only to discover the real object of her affection: a
life-size, mechanical male doll.
