First words
Mr. Maverick Narkom, Superintendent of Scotland Yard, looked up from the letter he was perusing, a wrinkle in his brow and one hand spread out over the sheet to keep it open, as the sound of a soft knock broke through the sti... (show all)llness, and with an exasperation born of the knotty problem upon which he was at work, called out an irritable, "Come in."
Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)And, so speaking, he passed out of that house of discord, which, however, he was to visit later, many times, as friend and confidant of the new owner of it, out into the clear sunshine of an early noon, and the paths that lay ahead.
