Explore "The Judgment of Larose" by Arthur Gask on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Larose was considerably annoyed with Inspector Roberts, for the latter had made what would have been in the ordinary way a most easy and simple task a decidedly difficult one.
But for the inspector's ever-ready gibe about 'the man who never failed' and his continued refusal to believe that anyone else but the butler could have been the killer of Captain Dane, Larose would have gone straight to the authorities in Brighton and through them have obtained permission from the Regency Club people to search the leather settees that had formerly reposed in the billiard-room of Southdown Court.
