Every single detail fitted perfectly motives, time, place, opportunity. I held on to the wash basin to keep from falling while the bathroom whirled around, me. I reached for a towel and wiped the sweat from my face and went to look for the proof the proof of what I knew. It wasn't there. I hadn't thought it would be. I don't think at that moment that I had any conscious plan. What I did, I did unthinkingly, going forward Btep by step, with flashes of sheer insight showing me the road where lay the only hope of escape for any of us. And so in a little while I found myself going back downstairs wracking my brain for some ex cuse to get rid of John, and George Baker gave me my cue. He was in the lower hall looking at Clint Mattison's fishing gear, and said something about wishing that he had brought his rods along. I said quickly: "I'll send John over to Middleton to get equip ment for you." I brushed eside his protest, and hurried down to the tower to dis patch John on this errand at once. I gave him a blank check and told him to take the station wagon, and added generously: "You on't need to hurry back, John. Take the evening off and go to a shew." I went into the garage after he had gone and looked at the license plates on the big sedan. It took me a bit to figure out what to do about them. T WAS back within six miles of Listen the next afternoon be fore the police caught up with me. As I approached the house under motorcycle escort, figures popped out of the hall door like peas out of an overripe pod, Kathy dashed forward and opened the car door. Deputy Shaw pushed up beside her. He eyed first me and then the dusty car. "I don't suppose it's any use asking you where you went," he observed dryly. "But how in bell did you manage to do it? Every pop in the state was looking fix I pointed to last year's license plates neatly wired over the cur rent ones on the sedan. I sup pose the difference in color had . passed them as out of the state licenses. Deputy Shaw swore toftly but effectively. a TIE took hold of my arm and J"1 rather forcibly helped me into the house. The others trooped in disconsolately after us. As we entered the living room he waited until everyone was there before closing the door. Then he asked us to sit down. George Baker looked sick. Kathy sat stiffly erect in one cor ner of the huge davenport Con nie reached for one of Walter's hands and clung to it desperately. Clint Mattison remained standing, a little detached and to one side, as if he felt himself an intruder. I sat in a chair directly facing Shaw. Shaw shifted his weight and looked at me. "Mrs. Kraik, I think I should tell you what happened here after your disap pearance. "Mr. Mattison and your grand daughter feared for your safety when they found you had gone away in the big car. They had already seen the chauffeur drive off in the station wagon. So they came to me for help and with cer tain information which they nad imprudently withheld until then. "They brought me a gun your gun from which one bullet had been fired. Tests have shown that it was the gun that killed Derek Grady. They also brought me a wallet belonging to the dead man which Mr. Mattison had seen you hiding in the Cottage. The money and the ring in the wallet nad been given to Derek Grady by your granddaughter to help him escape from the coun try. She says she gave them to him voluntarily when he appealed to her for help. But she thought you must have found out about It in some way and have assumed that she was being blackmailed.' Shaw turned to Connie: "You told me, and later swore at the in quest, that you and your mother-in-law were together at lunch during the hour when Derek FUNNY "'i'he coniiiuimlcr rcnnnied SS' COPYRIOHT. NEA SERVICE. INC. Grady was murdered. If you were foing to lie about it you should nave bribed your governess to Keep still." Connie was frankly amazed. "I don't know what you mean. I didn't lie; we were together." Perhaps some errant memory prodded her then. At any rate, she grew less sure of herself. "What what do you mean about my governess?" Shaw grew sarcastic. "She finally remembered to tell me that you came into the breakfast room where she was feeding the twins that day, and that you stayed in there for some time with them." Connie flushed miserably. "I I had forgotten that. Why, then then" "Then," Shaw finished for her, "your mother-in-law had time to kill Derek Grady." He turned back to me. .

I lifted my head arrogantly. "AU right," I said. "What now?" "I'm arresting you, Mrs. Michaol Kraik," declared Deputy Sam Shaw, "for the murders of Derek Grady and Margaret Rcilly."
