Chapter 1:countinued 

	She stands by the window watching for the cab. Her niece, Annan sets
patiently finishing the embroidered table cloth she has been working on for
weeks. Anna always does such beautiful work. The cab rounds the corner.
	She servays the room. The gown hanges in quit splender, an elegant
testimony to the value of old money.
	Her son is getting marred. Whin he had first gone after her hart, as
he put it, she was of two minds. She wants her son to happy but if he let
her know the girl would marry him for the money. Something he already
knew so he rented so dreadful place in which he wooded her. After the girl
had agreed to marry him shed gone down to the square, were the artists sell
there work and her son insisted he start, under the pretense of buying a
cheap painting in order to meet this street tramp her son decided to marry.
	The girl turned out to be one of the most beautiful wimen that shed
ever seen, a virtual princess. Her long velvety hair just shimmered in the
sunlight and her deep lusterous blue eyes sparkled like a star. She has a 
tall, supple figure that belonges on the screen. The plainness of her dress
only accented the rarity of the grace and beauty that are hers naturally.
	After looking around at the paintings that were set up, the ones her
son had painted, she choose one she liked and asked the cost. The girl drove
a hard bargain showing that she also has good busness sense. Given time the
girl, Colera, would fit as well into society as if she were born into it.
	The driver finishes loadingt the cab. Her niece gets into the cabe 
after her. As the cab turns out the drive way she has a sudden thought,
if that son of hers failed to mention his status to that poor child, shes not
the sort who would read the society page, shes likely to go into shock upon
seeing the gown and such. Anna says as much. Johan has a tendency to be 
forgetful of such small details as money, details that Colera (a lovely name)
would consider extremely importint.
	She decides to go in first so as to prepare the girl befor the cabby
bringes in the packages. As they get out of the cab something slips away in
the gloom. They see the body as they enter the house, she faints.........

	At the police station the telephone rings,Detective Toron answers.
" Northwood police, Detective Toron speaking."   "Mrs. Lenvel what can I do
for you ?"	Picking up a pad and pencil. "OH. Yes, I see."  Writing on the
pad "Of coarse well get over there right away."	Over his shoulder 
"Send an ambulance over to the Lenvil townhouse, we have a possible homicide"
 back to the phone "Calm down, well be right there."   He hanges up. Grabbing
his coat on the way out he mutters  "possible my foot."  His partner, Leen
Corben, comes up beside him speaking  "Come now Staen, Its not our place to
speculate just yet. It could be accidental."  Toron glances at his partner
" When was the last time it was an accedent?"

	Lets take this time to look at our officers...
The first Detective, Staen Toron< is tall, a towering 7'. He has deep slate
blue eyes slightly hidden beneath thick, dark eye brows. This, along with his
sooty black hair, give him a look of extreme gravity. Not only is he tall, he
is also rather thin. Over the years he has developed a reputation for psychic
tendencys, his feelings are almost always right. Do to his stern apperince
most people avode him opting insted to talk with his partner Detective Lee
 (LEEN) Corben.  	Detective Corben, countrary to his first name, is a 
stout man with a kind face. The older of the two his hair is slightly gray.
His eyes, under his almost white eye brows, are a pail, gray green, as thou
his years on the force have washed away most of the color. A few years from
forced retirement, he has an all around grandfatherly look that people trust.
