Bourbon On The Rocks #60

by

I drove out to the Silver Sun Motel for the second time in as many days. I pulled into the same spot I had the day before. We got out and started to Room 13.

Harrigan eyed the surroundings as we walked up to the door of the room.

"You really hobnob with society's elite, don't you, Randolph? How do you do it?"

"Good breeding is always telling, Harrigan," I said, reaching the door of Room 13.

I knocked several times but got no answer. I peered through the window, seeing no one.

Milton Dunn had obviously taken a powder...

    "Taken a powder" is an old expression that means to run off or disappear.

    These days it might mean something different!
