Quote context

[...]

- Did you know that this secret closet was here?

- No, it was behind the grandfather's clock. Well, it was I who found it, really. I noticed the clock had been moved. And the door wasn't quite closed.

(Doorbell ringing) I'll get it.

- Who is it?

- Mark Fleming.

- As coroner, you saw the same wounds on the others.

- How long has he been dead?

- Oh, I'd say about a half an hour.

- Do you believe it was the Bat?

- That's the Bat's trademark.

- Perhaps he's still in the house.

- That's possible.

- Why should he be?

- Because he's looking for something, and like you, he believes it's here.

- And he's a persistent killer. I would advise you get out of this house as quickly as possible, not withstanding our expert police protection.

- Have you called the morgue?

- They're on their way here.

- Oh, good, I want to examine the body before they get here. May we take it into another room?

- Yes, to the sun room in the back.

- Thank you, give me a hand.
