The Avenger 21 - The Happy Killers - Plot & Excerpts
He’d gone like the wind to the great home from which Josh furtively reported. Josh had had the devil of a time keeping him in sight. Brown’s stop in Xenan’s gravel driveway was so abrupt that the tires of his car had slid a dozen yards. Josh left his car half a block down and went toward the Xenan grounds like a black shadow in the black night. He reached the hedge just in time to see Brown hurrying in the doorway, and passing a surprised-looking servant. It was then that he’d radioed Benson. After that, Josh squeezed through the hedge and went toward the house. Halfway there, he stopped, and his head went back in a strained, listening way. He thought for a minute that he had heard something that he distinctly did not want to hear. A high, thin laugh from somewhere in the blackness beyond the house. He listened for a full minute, with sweat cold on the palms of his hands. But he didn’t hear it again.
