CHAPTER THIRTY An old French dock in the living room struck noon. What was everyone doing? Why hadn’t Garrison telephoned? And Mat—? Fan suddenly had to confide in someone. She went into her bedroom, and shook David Farland awake. Th* drug had worn off. He was touting in shallow drcam*. He sat bolt upright. “I've got to talk to you," ah* said. “This may explain—l mean, I do krow something about Carlie’* past life. She was afraid—always afraid, a.* I am now." Fan sat on th* edge of th* bed. She Hung the envelop* at him. and flung the content* of the tin box on the bed cover. She hadn’t looked, herself, at what was in th* box. There were letter*, a diary, and a list of name*. David, coming out of hl* daze, Angered them while Fan talked. Her words poured out, disjointed, incoherent. There had been a man in Carl!*’* life before she met Mattila Breanu. Fan didn't know anything about him, except that he had some sort of hold on Carlie, and that Carlie waa seared. David handled th* few documenta, hi* brow creased. “I can’t make sense of this.” he muttered. “Give mo that envelope.” “I can’t make sen** of It either.” Fan's round faee wa* troubled. "But look at the numeral *evew—the date*, th* figure*. They’re written like foreign seven*—l mean with a bar aero** the item. We don’t write sevens that way hero.” David didn't think it waa very important how one wrote seven*. After all, these old note* to Carlie, which he scanned, were not those of a lover. Th* list of names meant nothing to him, except that there were these occasional crossed seven* ae dates or amount*. “Well then, what do you make of this?” Fan thrust at him the top sheet of the dummy bulk in the envelope. David gave it a disgusted glance. Hi* head still aehed. “If you ask me, it’* junk!” Hi* face grew red a* he thought of Jane. With sudden suspicion, he demanded, “How doe* Breanu make hi* sevens?” “With bar*,” Fan answered. The telephone by th* bed, rang. Fan answered it, conscious that David wa* leaping out of the opposite side of the bed, and flying into her dressing room where hi* doth** were. She said, “Hello," listening to the bard sound of the shower. It wa* Richard Garrison’* voice, low, urgent “They’ve found Anna Sweitzer’s body, beaten up, not far from your place. Send Farland around here at once." Hi* voice sounded urgent

Muttila Brcanu was an aroused and bitter man the Sunday morning after Garrison’s party. It had been a night of mistakes and frustration. For once, nothing he planned had gone his way. His mood black as his robe, he eat glowering over a late breakfast. Cool October light came through the windows of the sun room. The "big shot” cursed Fan Rubley softly and terribly in his native tongue. His sick hate moved like a searchlight around him. Wherever he turned, be found himself hemmed to by images of passion and despair.

Last night, for so short a time, he had felt happy with Jane Rider beside him—young, fine, beautiful. Ye*, he had felt warm and tender a* he had never felt toward brilliant Carlie. But Jane had let Mm down. She had sneaked away from Garrison’s p*rty with a nosey newspaperman. In Breanu'* tortured brain flashed the picture of the junk arsenal on the lonely meadowlaad* of New Jersey, the time Farland and Wright followed him to the ereek. Blasted young snooper* I They hadn’t found out anything. Perhaps tonight—perhaps totawiww night, th* greased chain would slip hi* cargo out on its dangerous passage to the Black Sea. Breanu rose like a man on borrowed time, and went to the piano at which Carlie had so often sat, playing and singing in her low rieh voice. Hi* short finger* touched ths note* delicately, lingeringly. He didn’t hear the doorbell. Kurt Helm earn* in, unannounced. He had pushed Doremus aside. But for a second he paused, seeing that stocky figure on the piano bench, outlined in the Mg room crowded by antique*. Breanu’* music was limpid in melancholy, broken by ancient theme* of folk daneee. Helm, svelte and blond, stood in a shadow, listening. These air* that Breanu improvised, clicked in hi* mind. The ageless beauty of them moved him strangely. He felt a sense of triumph. Mat Breanu wa* giving away a secret, without knowing IL Th* single due—that but of music Carlie had scribbled on top of an empty page in the dummy bulk of th* envelope, now pointed to this JNACt, “Sorry to interrupt” Helm presently advanced on Breanu who, startled, crashed a minor chord, and swung around. “How did you get In, Heim?” Hi* voice waa harsh. The telephone whirred on a small g ~ l *' Bwann to answer, and Kurt Helm followed him, smilTt was Attorney Garrison. “Are you alone. Mat?” “N®." snapped. Well, thia can't wait" Garrison said sharply, a* if his patience were exhausted. “We haven’t eaught the : S’* I**' 1 **' “ a " yH - W * h ” ' killed his wife.

Helm moved nearer, cocking his I ~r , toward * the receiver. Breanu tried to push him away. Garrison went on urgently, "The P rl toW BU * * things which bring other angles into the D you know anything about this writer ehap, Helsa, who lives Woe'te the Riders?
