Mrs Hendley

In the novel Postern of Fate, Mrs Hendley is an elderly woman who lives at Apple Tree Lodge, an old people's home in or near Hollowquay. Winifred Griffin directed Tuppence Beresford to her as a resource person in her inquiries into the events at Swallow's Nest. She did not, however, specify what special knowledge Mrs Hendley might have or in what way she could be useful. In the end Tuppence never got around to visiting her.

In a later chapter, her name is spelled "Henley".
