Elusive Vermeer

The popular stories of the immortal character originally created in the story The Third Man with the symphonic music by Anton Carus. I've been looking for a needle in a haystack. Well I did a bit of needle searching and landed myself not so on a go.

This was no ordinary needle. As it all concerned a picture a man had painted in Holland 300 years ago. I'll call this little adventure Horace Singen Winderman. Yes that really was his name.

It can. Horace had class, he was probably the classiest, breaking and entering merchant, that had ever burgled an English country man. And he had taste too. Horace's jaws were all big ones. He planned the months in advance, down to the last detail.

That's how I came to get involved. We were having a drink at his villa one evening, just the two of us. Very much so. I've been wondering him, I could interest in a small business proposition.

So long as it involves a maximum of profit with a minimum of risk, the answer is yes. This is a bit profitable enough, I assure you. As for the risk, well, let's up to yourselves.

I'm all ears. For a second, the last and second, first, I should be returning to England next week. Who should have the right opportunity present to tell my proposal, this is a place called Bartley Hall-Wilff's.

Wilff's? Of which, in my dear fellow, the county. Bartley Hall is one of the showcases there, and the country seated Lord Rickston. This visit will be during his lordship's absence, of course. Oh, naturally. It would be the most embarrassing that we would meet.
