Excerpt from The Tragedy at the Beach Club
On, on, through the night, there sped relentlessly a little roadster, its solitary occupant dust-begrimed and bearing marks of weariness as if from a long journey, yet apparently grimly determined to reach some fixed goal within a given time.
On several occasions as the car stopped while its occupant inquired the way, invariably the person addressed turned to stare wonderingly after the de parting traveler. In the motorist's face was a strange, inscrutable expression, a look indicative of some fixed, definite purpose, almost a maniacal glare that seemed to portray an intense purpose to carry out some great resolve, cost what it might.
