Elaine's eyes dropped TO the

gave a little stifled gasp which
betrayed her as completely as
a written confession signed at
police headquarters.

Kay tried TO keep hersel

fact seemed TO make inevitable

He moved TO her, taking quick,
long strides. He stood directly In

drop over her eyes as if she could
no longer endure his burning
stare.

quickly she looked away because
Alice Lumsden had come in after

intercepted their exchange of
glances and narrowed with in

The nurse was still wearing her

subtle change in her. The old
air of trained self effaCement
was gone Kay was sure that Gill
bert had told her about her SEN
sational Inheritance and that she
was triumphantly conscious of
her position as mistress of Hurri-
cane House.
And then the Major stepped
into the room. Looking at him,
Kay was sure her fears had been
justified
You all seem to be here" he
said That's good"
Then. when the suspense was
at its climax. he said
Il want you all to confirm one

he withdrew them again and his
