Chapter I. DEATHтАЩS REVELRY
ANDREW PODREY VANDERSLEEVE had guests in his Westchester mansion. Guests in strange garb.
Grotesque guests in exclusive Westchester hills. Their conduct was as incongruous as their queer clothing.

Andrew Podrey Vandersleeve was not perturbed by all this. For the master of several millions was very dead.
He sat at his ornate mahogany desk with his arms sprawled. Blood black as ink had flowed from his
aristocratic veins.

The Vandersleeve guests enjoyed themselves in unseemly fashion. They shouted at each other. Some voices
were hoarse and menacing. Women emitted squealing screams. Occasionally a gun popped viciously.

Upstairs, one dead hand of Andrew Podrey Vandersleeve lay in the little pool of purplish-black blood. No other
person appeared to have been with him in the big library. The door and windows now were securely locked.

Outside the immense house, the walled estate was filled with the odd, roughly clad women and men. Many
women wore cheap and garish dresses.
