When mrs. georciana casserly returned
from shopping, she found her husband
Percy sprawled on- the floor of his study in
their home in Wimbledon, England. He had
two. .32 caliber bullet wounds in the head.
At first, it appeared he had died resisting a
robber. The contents of his desk were scat
tered on the floor, and the room had been
ransacked. But when it was discovered that
nothing had been stolen, police looked for an
other motive.
It was not easily found. Percy Casserly was
well liked by his neighbors and had no known
enemies. Numerous friends attended the fu
neral, and many offered to help the attractive
widow.
But none was more attentive than Edward
Chaplin, a prosperous bachelor and local
stonemason. For several years, he had been
the couple's closest friend.
While police made a fruitless search for
clues, Chaplin was in almost constant attend
ance on the comely widow. He was with her
so much that the neighbors began to talk.
