Once again, this bit is directly after last week’s. No one is eating, but they are gloating a little bit over finally trapping the man who has been dogging their steps since the murder*—and who might have committed it . . .
“Some people,” the Pressman said with something approaching relish, “prefer not to carry identification on their person.”
“And I’ll bet he refused point blank to give his name,” I added.
Charlie nodded. “Yeah—pitched a real snit from what I heard. You know him?” he asked. “’Cause if you do, you know I’ll have to call it in.”
The Pressman and I shook our heads as one. “We’ve never seen him before,” I said, widening my eyes as far as they would go.
