Librarian's note #1: this is the original short story. One question remains, will justice prevail? French's housekeeper, Janet, gives damning evidence against Vole and, as Romaine's cross-examination begins, her motives come under scrutiny in the courtroom. However, when questioned, Romaine informs the police that Vole returned home late that night covered in blood. Leonard assures his solicitor that his wife, Romaine Heilger, can provide him with an alibi. When an elderly and wealthy spinster Emily French is found murdered, suspicion falls on Leonard Vole, the man to whom she hastily bequeathed her riches before she died.
