About this title

Synopsis

From Chapter 1: A tall figure of a man stepped down from the last day coach a the end of the express train from the West. He carried a heavy, much-traveled suitcase. He looked about as if the surroundings were not familiar, then proceeded along the lengthy platform toward the front end of the train. He passed several more day coaches, three Pullmans, and arrived at the two baggage cares, from the open doors of which some trunks were being unloaded as well as numerous sacks of mail. As he reached this point a long box was pushed from one of the cars onto a waiting hand truck. It was mid-afternoon in late August. The tall man put down his suitcase and gazed about impatiently. The railway station (its name was on a sign across the end of the platform's half-roof) wa that of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. The long box obviously contained a coffin.
