HUNTERLEYS SCENTS MURDER The concierge of the Hotel de Paris was a man of great stature and imposing appearance.

Nevertheless, when Hunterleys crossed the road and climbed the steps to the hotel, he seemed for a moment like a man reduced to pulp.

He absolutely forgot his usual dignified but courteous greeting.

With mouth a little open and knees which seemed to have collapsed, he stared at this unexpected apparition as he came into sight and stared at him as he entered the hotel.

Hunterleys glanced behind with a slight frown.
