Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Eyes of the Blind

His visitor stared at Deems stupidly. He swayed slightly forward; then, as Deems, with sudden recognition of the man's condition, with held the savage uppercut that the forward mo tion had caused him to start, the Visitor pitched forward into the tiny hall. His clawing hands tore at the portiere that hung between the hall and the living room; the drapery gave way, and with a rattle of brass rings he fell to the floor.

Poor devil! Deems bent over him. But no fumes of liquor assailed him. He felt the man's pulse. Then, his face suddenly white, Deems walked to the telephone.

Excerpt from The Eyes of the Blind

Deems stared at the door. Somebody had knocked, then. Hands in the pockets of his dressing-gown, he watched the door-knob turn to the right, and then to the left. Nervy beggar! It was a happy thought that had made Deems put a bolt of his own purchasing on the door. Otherwise - and he grinned - there would have been nothing to prevent a midnight visitor from entering the Deems bachelor apartment. Nothing, that is, except good sense. But then, as all penologists agree, criminals do not have good sense. Whoever was trying to enter this apartment now bore out the conclusions of the students of crime. For how could the dwelling-place of a newspaper reporter possibly hold attractive loot for the marauders of midnight? Still, it gave a fellow quite a thrill.
