He had been up against so many purely intangible obstacles lately that it was a relief to find one he could use his fists on. "Now I'll have a few words with you, my desperate friend," he said. "I've got your gun, and I am hell with a revolver, because I've never fired one, and there's a sort of homicidal beginner's luck about the thing.
Again and again she won, until even Watson seemed to think there was something uncanny about it. "Beginner's luck," remarked Bella with a forced laugh.
