The Eternal Night #123

by

It took both me and Mason by surprise. Sperry stood up out his chair and yelled, "What the hell kind of detective are you, Randolph?"

I stood up just as angrily and said, "Excuse me?"

"I needed to know if my fiancee had anything in her past that might cause me scandal and you bring me pictures of her damned childhood bedroom?"

I was about three seconds from grabbing Sperry, pulling him across that desk, and showing him just what kind of detective I really was when Mason stood up.

"Mr. Sperry, wait a minute! You haven't heard it all!"
