"That sort of secretary-valet of Mr. Quest's Ross Brown, I think he calls him is always on the spot." They waited for some time. There was still no answer to their summons. The Inspector placed his ear to the keyhole. There was not a sound to be heard. He drew back, a little puzzled. At that moment his attention was caught by the fluttering of a little piece of white material caught in the door.
