The Avenger 9 - Tuned For Murder - Plot & Excerpts
In the world of letters and biology, Sessel’s was a shining name. But as a tap dancer he wasn’t known. That was natural because he had never even tried to tap dance before. He tried it now in the center of the general office with gaping clerks and scared stenographers watching. With his chin high, sticking his Vandyke out at a crazy angle, he whistled “Sweet Adeline” and tried to clog the time with his feet. He fell down, bumping his head against a desk leg. He didn’t seem to feel it at all. He got up, laughing shrilly like a whinnying horse and tried again. “Sweet”—tap, tap, tap, stumble—“Adeline”—tap, tap, heavy fall. Sessel lay where he had fallen that time, for he had turned his ankle. But lying there, he was screaming with laughter as though at the funniest joke in the world. And between laughs he was chanting the song and jerking his feet in rhythm.
