Still in his pyjamas, he telephoned Suzy at the Freeberg Clinic. ‘Suzy, I’ve got to see you today,’ he said excitedly. ‘When can you get here?’ ‘Why, you know, soon^s work is done. I can be there a little after six.’ ‘No, before, I must see you before.’ ‘You make it sound like something important,’ said Suzy, bewilderment in her voice. ‘What is it?’ ‘Not on the phone,’ replied Hunter. ‘There’s something I want to show you. And yes, it is important.’ ‘Well, I suppose I could drop by at my lunch break — ’ ‘Your lunch break? That would be great. You can grab a sandwich here while we talk.’ ‘About what?’ Suzy persisted. ‘Can’t you even give me a hint?’ ‘You’ll see. I’ll be waiting for you at twelve fifteen.’ The minute he hung up, Hunter thought of another call he must make. He lifted the receiver once more, and he dialled City Hall, When he had it, he asked the switchboard operator to put him through to District Attorney Hoyt Lewis’s office.
