He had leaped in and attacked the woman at the moment that the taxi-man had started his engine; if already inside, the deed had proven even easier. Then, during some block in the traffic, he had slipped out unseen, leaving the body of the victim to be discovered when the cab pulled up at the hotel.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
