THE WOMAN IN 919
At the Winsonia Hotel, where she occupied room 919, she was known as Mrs. Harlowe Green. Her husband's mother did not approve of her and offered her fifty thousand dollars to get a divorce. But Mrs. Marhowe Green knew something about the weak-minded young scion of wealth whom she had married--something that would bring him a penitentiary sentence--and she held out for a much larger sum.
The woman had other enemies besides the husband and mother-in-law on whom she was trying to levy blackmail. There was Vincent Solari, the man she had sent to prison, and there were others.
When she was found dead in her room, Inspector Nash had a complicated problem on his hands, but he solved it in his characteristic masterly fashion--not be superdetective methods, but by the application of common sense and sound logic, which after all is the detective method that actually solves most crimes in real life.
