In the short story The Red Signal, Mrs Violet Eversleigh was a guest at a dinner party at the home of Jack and Claire Trent, alongside Sir Alington West and Dermot West. Unlike the highly scientific Sir Alington, Mrs Eversleigh believed in such things as "a sixth sense", feminine intuition and Dermot West's "red signal" of danger.
