MoreAn excerpt: "Sit down, Morgan," said the Chief, waving his hand toward a chair. "I've got a case here that'll make even you go some." As Morgan sat down the Chief gathered up some typewritten sheets from his desk, and continued; "I didn't like to break up the first day you've had off in a long time, Morgan, but there was a murder on Sheridan Road last night--or early, this morning, to be exact--that has put a real mystery up to the Department. It'll need a man like you to solve it--if it can be solved. The newspapers had big headlines this morning, and the public will be watching us on account of the peculiar nature of the crime." "I saw something about it in my paper this morning," said Morgan. "There were no details, however. The notice probably caught the last edition with little more than the fact that a murder had been committed." "Well," exclaimed the Chief, "it's one of the biggest mysteries we've ever had handed to us. The shot was heard by both the man on the beat and a tenant in the building, but outside of the stories of these two men, and the discovery of a blood stain on a rug in a supposedly empty flat, not another thing has been found. The body is missing, and there is no trace of how it got out of the flat or where it is now. Here is a report of all that we know so far. By the way, your partner Tierney made this report. He happened to be on the job last night, so I told him to stick to it." The Chief handed the typewritten sheets to Morgan.
