by Burke, an expert thief, who takes the
boy with him to America and makes of
him a finished craftsman. After stealing

finds Roddy already installed as a guest.

Roddy apparently asleep and snoring in
the next room. then comes back stealth

explains her presence by saying that she
was sleep-walking. In his apartment near

from The Pack to the Lone Wolf to join

beside one of the roulette tables,
