Night Desk

1 a.m. at the Crown Hotel. A guest’s bag is gone, and the night clerk saw everything but the obvious.

The case

Tom found your card in the desk drawer at the Crown Hotel. It’s dated the night you can’t remember. Now a guest’s bag is gone, the police won’t come till morning, and he calls the number on the card.

He has been on the desk for thirteen hours. He is honest, tired, and certain he has told you everything.

He has. He just hasn’t put two of his own facts together. Somewhere in a quiet afternoon and a broken lift is the reason a guest’s cameras are gone, and the reason Tom should not go down to the basement alone.
