Over her head Paul's serious face belied his gay attempt at bantering conversation. "You have the cutest turned-u- p nose," he informed her. "But it doesn't suit the rest of you." "That's a dubious compliment," There . Joan smiled. "Your nose gives you away for white-face- what you are, a cute kid! Paul laughed and so did she. Cute kid! Karl called her beautiful, glamorous, exciting Paul Sherman thought she was just a cute kid. It proved how much more sophisticated Karl was. Yet if she had never met Karl she would have been fond of Paul. He was young, g and intelligent. Karl, however, had so much more to offer. He had lived. He was experienced. There was a mystery about him that set Just good-lookin- him apart from all others. There subtle fascination about accent. Karl represent-e- d power and strength. Karl . . .

Was this d man the one who had held her tenderly and murmured "liebchen"? Someone was pounding at the office door. Karl had locked it. Paul Sherman's voice came distinctly through the opaque glass panel. "Joan! What's going on in there? Let me in!" Karl walked to the door and opened it. "There has been an unfortunate accident," he said calmly. Paul's expression did not change. "What happened?" Karl Miller smiled a little as he d manager. regarded his "Joan was perfectly justified. Eric has tried to annoy her before. You can testify to that yourself. "Just what are you driving at?" Paul demanded. Joan tried to speak but her lips would not move. What was Karl saying? What did he mean? "Joan shot Eric," Karl Miller stated. His words were like an electric shock. "I didn't! Karl, you know I didn't! You did it yourself! You shot him!" She ran to Paul and clutched his arm. "Paul, you believe me, don't vou?" Paul Sherman did not answer. He did not even look at her "Your fineerorints are on the gun," Karl said. "But vou told me to pick it up. She could not believe her ears.

And I'm going to tell them the whole story. She was not speaking to the Karl Miller she had loved. This man was a stranger. "You will not go to the. police!" His voice cut like a whip. Paul Sherman stared straight ahead of him, seeming to see or hear nothing. "I will!" Joan cried hysterically, turning towards the door. Karl's powerful arm stopped her and forced her roughly into a chair. "There are two reasons why you will not. The first if you do I will testify that you shot Eric, and Paul will back me up." Her pleading eyes turned to Paul. He would not fail her.

He must be driven by desperation to turn against her, It was some horrible mistake. In a moment it would be over. He would explain everything and hold her in his arms again.

"Give me a hand." Together they carried the lifeless Eric Strom from the office Joan could hear them descending the fire escape, outside the back of the building. What would they dp with Eric? The noise from the or chestra must have prevented the sound of the shot from disturbing the Club guests Joan stared at the telephone. She was alone. It would be easy to call the police but she was afraid. She was afraid of the look in Karl Mil ler's eyes. There had been ruthless determination in those eyes. And in the safe lay the gun that had killed Eric. A gun bearing her fin- gerprints. faul had said he would testify in support of Karl. What chance would Joan Leland have? The evidence was conclusively against her. What was behind this murder? Why Karl's attitude, Paul's sudden change of front? She had no idea how long it was before Karl returned. He was alone. "Let us understand each other," he said, sitting down at his desk. "It would be most unfortunate if I were to become involved with the police. I am not an American citizen. "You are a German?" Joan asked dully. "Naturally, as is everyone else associated with me here at the club." "Paul, too?" "Of course, Paul, too." Karl Mil ler smiled as he leaned towards her. ,'You see we are engaged in certain activities which are necessarily very private. Then at last Joan knew the truth. This was a spy ring.
