“What are you going to do?”
“Close in on Rich.”
“Do you need assistance?”
“Give me two men.”
The chief inspector called in two men and they went out with Carter.
They entered a taxicab and were driven to the address given to the detective by the expressman.
The name of Lawrence was on the letter box belonging to the first flat.
Carter entered the hall with his men.
One of them he sent back to guard the back door of the flat and prevent escape by that exit. Then he knocked on the front door, which was opened by a tall, comely, gray-haired woman.
Within he heard voices.
