PROLOGUE

When Il murder is committed
there is Invariably a motive.
Sometimes it is obvious; ONE
times its presence is masked be-
hind a compzesity of possibili-
ties until it is we'll nigh impos-
sible to disentangle the slender
skein of fact from the warp and
woof o probability. But always
the motive is there. Look for
the woman" said Pere Tabaret,
the French detective, and in her
you will find the solution of y
mystery---D you find her." And
in the main he was right. Yet it
is not always the obvious woman
O. the Obvious motive that is
responsible for a crime. Some
times the underlying cause rests
on deeper reasons than are ap-
parent even to the closest OBJ
server. Then only an accident
car give a clew to the real GRIM
inal. And so it is with 1.-The
Argyle Case"

He resumed his seat at his desk and
bent over his papers. The girl looked
at the woman and smiled slightly. The
woman looked at the girl and moved
slowly over to her and held out her

Kayton went to the door of the little
