"The man is a spy, a favourite in the Wilhelmstrasse and only made use of on important occasions.

His name is Wolff--Johann Wolff." "And this story of his ?" "You ought to be the best judge of that." "I am," Dominey assented confidently.

"Without the shadow of a doubt I threw the body of the man I killed into the Blue River and watched it sink." "Then the story is a fake," Seaman decided.
