The German Violinist and a Missing Baxter
A narrator visits Frigate Lane seeking clues about Lily Baxter and her friends. He questions Mrs Haag and a German neighbor, learns of a distant link to a German family and a crippled child, and travels to a garret where a quiet girl Raff and a friend of Baxter may hold key details. One girl, Raff, confirms a friend of Baxter died, while the narrator presses for memories of a past companion.
