An arranged railroad accident scheme is foiled when the arrangements are accidentally derailed. There are many kinds of jealousy and none of them are any good. The jealous one in love is most frequent but there is another more terrible jealousy that of a man for his co-worker. Tom Reddick was jealous of Charles Freemont’s cleverness, his ability to succeed. Always when there was applause for a job well done Charles Freemont was patted on the back and when he was given the position of General Manager of the plant, the job that had been Tom Reddick’s, that’s when the jealousy reached a sickening height…

Miss Alice returns home after searching for Mr. Phillips for five years. He disappeared off the face of the earth. There are strange things about that tree in the garden. The part of Anthony is played with a delightful Yorkshire accent. There’s an old adage about letting sleeping dogs lie but sometimes that’s not so easy, sometimes they won’t lie still, sometimes they walk in the night. They might have warned Alice Towers and the people of the little English village of Whitby about that but they probably wouldn’t have noticed. The mysterious disappearance of Philip Towers five years ago was all but forgotten and the flood that had just engulfed the surrounding countryside was still the main topic of conversation. That was when Alice Towers came home arriving at the little station on the 10:15 train…

Murder is born in many places, but most of them, quite ordinary. Sometimes it’s born in a smoke filled hotel room; sometimes around a nightclub table, but most often it begins in a small secret place because murder is a secret thing at first. Take, for example, a small, unobserved telephone booth in the back of a chain drugstore. The one in which a small time racketeer Peanut Morolla is talking.
