About This Item
MP3 Audio CD. CHAPTER I MALICIOUSLY ACCUSED ?Let them think what they like. If I had died I would have been a hero; because I lived I suppose there is nothing in the history of crime that I have not committed.? Young Captain Code Schofield sprang out of the deep, luxurious chair and began to pace up and down before the fire. He did not cast as much as a glance at the woman near him. His mind was elsewhere. He had heard strange things in this talk with her. ?Well, captain, you know how it is on an island like this. The tiny thing of everyday life becomes a subject for a day?s discussion. That affair of six months ago was like dropping a tombstone in a mud-puddle??everything is profoundly stirred, but no one gets spattered except the one who dropped it. In this case yourself.? Schofield stopped in his tracks and regarded his 2 hostess with a look that was mingled surprise and uneasiness. She lay back in a chaise-longue, her hands clasped behind her head, smiling up at the young man. The great square room was dark except for the firelight, and her yellow dress, gleaming fitfully in it, showed the curving lissomeness of her young body. ?Mrs. Mallaby,? he said, ?when you say clever things like that I don?t know what to do. I?m not used to it.? He laughed as though half-ashamed of the confession. ?Appreciate them,? she directed shortly with a fleeting glance from her great dark eyes. ?Do you demand all my time?? he asked and flushed. The well-turned compliment caught her unawares and she admitted to herself that perhaps she had underrated this briny youth who was again beginning to interest her extremely. But with the sally he seemed to have forgotten it and recommenced pacing the floor, his hands in his pockets and his brows knit. His mind had gone off again to this other vastly important thing.
