SYNOPSIS

Brooke Reyburn visits the Office of
Jed Stewart, a lawyer, to discuss the
terms of an estate she has inherited
from Mrs. Mary Amanda Dane. Unwit-
tingly she overhears Jed talking to Mark
Trent, nephew Of Mrs. Dane who has
been disinherited. Mrs. Dane had lived
at Lookout House, huge structure on
the sea, built by her father and divided
into two, for her and Marks father.
Brooke had been fashion expert, and
Mrs. Dane, "shut-in,' hearing her on
the radio had invited her to call and de.
velopec deep affection for her. Mark
discloses that Mrs. Dane had threatened
to disinherit him If he married Lola,
from whom he is now divorced. He says
he does not trust Henri and Clotilde
Jacques, Mrs. Danes servants. He says
he is not interested in an offer Of
Brooke's to share the estate with him.
Leaving her department store job,
Brooke refuses an offer to Ego stepping
with jerry Field, carefree young man
who wants to marry her. AT family
conference she learns she must live at
Lookout House alone, since Lucette, her
younger sister who is taking her job, her
brother, Sam, a young playwright, and
her mother plan to stay in the city. Jed
and Mark are astounded when they hear
from Mrs. Gregory, fan :ly friend.
that she had witnessed hitherto I'M
known will with Henri and Clotilde two
weeks before Mrs. Dane died. Brooke
had arrived just as she was leaving.
Jed suggests that Mark open his part Of

and try to find out about the will. Jed
agrees to stay with him. Mark accepts

she sank into the large chair be-
fore the fire.
"Still pals you two, aren't you?
Funny how much longer friendship
lasts between men than love be-
tween a man and woman. Mark, I
came here to talk to you. Jed, you
may CO."
Mark Trent's hand closed on
Stewards arm with a grip which
turned his nails white.
"Jed will stay and hear what you
have to say. Surely we can have no
secrets from the man who saw us
through the divorce court"
She shrugged. "All right with me.

Observation-Disclosures

Mark Trent stopped speaking to
stare at the ceiling. Had a door
banged overhead. or had he imag-
ined the sound? The servants, Taku
and Kowa, were in the kitchen at
this time of day; they wouldn't be
on the third floor anyway. he had
not had that opened up, plenty of
room below for Jed and himself.
A man entered the room with a
purposeful stride. He was ample of
jowl. slightly opulent as to waist
line; he had the finty eyes of an
eagle who can state straight at the
sun. A sense of force was his out
standing characteristic.
Here ] am, Mark. That Jap out
side wanted to bow me in, but !
shooed him off," Inspector Bill Har-
rison's voice was surprisingly soft
with persuasive infection.
"Glad you've come, Inspector.
This is my friend Jed Stewart"
Inspector Harrison nodded. "How
are you, Mr.. Stewart. Does he know
about the silver, Mark?" He low
cred himself into a deep chair and
accepted cigar.
Eyes, he's staying here to help
me-us solve the mystery"
What else have you lost?"
''Why>do you think we've lost any
thing else?"
Would you two city guys come to
this burg to stay just to find lot Of
silverware?"
''It's more than mere silverware;
the pieces are antiques of great
value"
Inspector Harrison pulled himself
from the enticing crimson depths to
his feet.
"An right, Mark, have it your own
way, but amt mixin' up in a case
where folks are holding out on me.
I work best when the interested
party works with me. Get that?"
Marks laugh was quick and dis
arming.
''Hold everything, Bill Harrison;
YOU can't walk out on us like that.
Sit down again. Jed, tell him what
Mrs. Gregory told us about the will
she witnessed. You understand, In
spector, that there may be nothing
to it--so it's off the record"
Say, Mark, do you suppose /

my head off? play the rules. Spill

Why shouldn't have a cup of tea
with you? I'm fanished. Place it
here"
The servant looked at Mark Trent
before he pressed the springs which
released the legs of the tray he was
carrying and set it before the wom-
an. He brought in muffin stand
with sandwiches and cakes.
"You needn't watt" she dis
missed the man as if she were the
mistress Of the house. Mark nod
ded confirmation as the Jap's eyes
sought his. Did he know that the
woman so dictatorially giving or
ders had been his wife?
Side by side the two men watched
her, watched her restless hands.
Once she had been told by stag
that her hands were like pale butter
flies, Mark remembered, and they
had auttered ever since. In the ST.
lence the tick of the clock set the
air vibrating; the fire snapped and
blazed cheerily; the tide against the
lodges doomed dull undertone.
Lola Hunt flung a crunpled dolly
to the table.
"Now cigarette, Mark, and /
shall be ready to proceed with my
story"
Sorry, haven't any,"
She raised brows which had been
plucked to thin arch.
"You do want to get rid Of me,
don't you. Well, strive to please"
She rose and crossed to the desk.
With glance over her shoulder, she
opened box Of Chinese lacquer.

did. He wrote that Miss Reyburn
evidently didn't like his wife and
himself, asked if I would give him
reference in case they lost the
position"
Was that all Henri Jacques had
written, Mark wondered. There was
hint of mockery in Lola's voice
and eyes. What was behind that
letter? He watched her thoughtfully
as she perched on the corner Of the
desk. crossed her knees and lighted
