I sat beside Inspector Cotton's desk as he made three phone calls, each to a possible suspect in the Bracken murder that had taken place hours earlier. The inspector invited the three suspects to headquarters with the same statement. "Please come to police headquarters. Mrs. Bracken has been murdered". The first to arrive was the Bracken cleaning lady with a good alibi. Then Bracken's chauffeur barged in shouting, "Who shot her? Just tell me, I'll get him". I told the inspector, no need for the third suspect to show. You've got your murderer. I'll explain. In the case of the volunteer suspect, the inspector's phone call didn't reveal how the woman was murdered. The chauffeur's knowledge that she was shot pointed the guilty finger at himself.
