A Mystery Novel of the Month 9 (no. 27) From the start Andy seemed to sense we were going to run into trouble that night. A nameless uneasiness possessed him. Twice before we left home he asked me if I were sure I wanted to go to the theater. I took it as a joke both times because I had nagged for months and it was the last chance to see Mida King in She Lands on Her Feet. Saturday, the sixteenth of April it was, the show to end its Broadway run after that night's performance. I had wanted to see She Lands on Her Feet more than I'd ever wanted to see any show. The MacVeighs, however, did not emerge from the toils of a murder investigation before the first spring thaw. Last October Andy, headquarters man in the police force of the New York, Chicago and Western Railroad, solved the murder of Winthrop Mason in Slocum, New York, almost single-handed. Because I'm Andy's wife and was in on the kill I got a small slice of the credit. But by the same token I shared the grim months of testimony that followed, months in which musical comedies and all the brighter things in life were barred from us.
