Murder in the Medical Works section at Darrow's Bookshop
Miss Constance Puller observes a dignified old man in the Medical Works alcove while a clerk recounts paying 510 for a rare Colfax book with a bookplate. A scream of murder erupts as the elderly man collapses, a young woman faints, and both are hospitalized amid a tangled tale of elopement, a missing suitcase, and a move to new upstairs quarters in Manhattan.
