Expense account continued Item 7 care fair for my hotel to police headquarters So far in this job I've been a big brilliant nothing. I figured the tenant ventile of the Cape Town police might be able to supply a few answers.
But as it turned out, all he had on his mind was questions. Now, Mr. Dollar, suppose you sit down and explain your connection with this affair. You sure, Lieutenant? I can make it short, if not sweet.
Andrew Forbes was an international playboy. I am well aware of that. Cape Town has entertained Mr. Forbes before. Oh, vice versa. Well, then you probably also know that he recently inherited a very large diamond known as the Star of Cape Town.
Yes? The company I represent was carrying the insurance on that stone, $150,000. They didn't like the way Forbes was flashing it around. They thought he was a bit too careless with it. I was trying to talk him into using a little common sense.
And that is why you came here to Cape Town. Yeah, but it looks like I've struck out. Struck for us. Forbes is dead and the diamond's gone. You were at the party from sometime before Forbes' murder until afterwards.
