“Well?” Wolfe demanded.
She put the coffee cup down. “Are you asking me?”
“Yes.”
“I don’t know.”
“Then we’ll return to that. You said Mr. Aubry has been arrested for murder. Has that charge been entered, or is he being held as a material witness?”
“No, murder. They said I couldn’t get bail for him.”
“Then they must have cogent evidence, surely something other than the manifest motive. He has talked, of course?”
“He certainly has.”
“He has told of his going to the door of Karnow’s room yesterday afternoon?”
“Yes.”
