"Why didn't you tell me that before, Loretta?" asked Anita, reproachfully. "I mean, about the the names Mr. Carlis called me, and his suspicions.
Timothy Carlis stood upon the threshold Timothy Carlis, his face empurpled, the great veins upon his low-slanting forehead standing out like whipcords, his huge, spatulate hands clenched, his narrow, slit eyes gleaming murderously.
