Above these was a cluster of meters, fuse-boxes and power-switches. Deep shelves on the opposite wall contained boxes of tinned food and crates of spirits. There was a spreading honeycomb of a wine-rack, full and expensive-looking. And on the floor Charles could see what had caused his fall. A pile of boxes lay scattered like a demolished chimney. He knelt down and re-piled them. They were heavy, as he knew from the numbing pain in his shin.<\/p>\n

He looked at the writing on the boxes. \u2018Salmon\u2019, \u2018Trout\u2019, \u2018Strawberries.\u2019 \u2018Do not refreeze.\u2019 Marius Steen certainly knew how to live. When he had finished piling the boxes up, Charles looked once more round the room and his eyes lighted on the very thing he needed at that moment\u2014a torch. It was a long, black, rubber-encased one, hanging from a hook by the back door.<\/p>\n

He took it down, switched on, turned off the light and opened the door into the rest of the house. He was in the garage. It was large, but dominated by the huge form of a dark blue Rolls-Royce. Remembering a detail with sudden clarity, Charles knelt down and looked at the left-hand side of the front bumper. There was a little dent, which he\u2019d lay any money corresponded to the dent in the back right-hand wing of Bill Sweet\u2019s Ford Escort.<\/p>\n

The door of the Rolls was not locked. Key in the ignition, nothing in the glove compartment and the petrol gauge read empty. Charles moved round the great car, looking for any other clues it might give. He felt his foot slip under him and sat down with a jarring shock, landing uncomfortably on a spanner and a piece of plastic tubing.<\/p>\n

Fate seemed determined to translate his dramatic mission into slapstick. He found the door which led to the body of the house. Along a corridor and into the large hall. All the walls were hung with hunting prints which were anonymously expensive, bought on advice by a man without natural taste. Two enormous china Dalmatians stood guarding the front door. They seemed to reflect more of their owner\u2019s personality.<\/p>\n
