When a wealthy amateur astronomer named Harris failed to respond to my phone call, I suspected foul play. Rushing to his observatory, I entered, turned on the lights, and found the man slumped over his telescope. He was dead. I started talking to his neighbors. One woman named Mrs. Lanning proved a helpful witness. She said she saw the whole thing from her balcony. She described the killer as a tall redhead who walked with a limp. I thanked her for her help and invited her downtown. She was lying. I'll explain. In the case of the seeing eye suspect, when I entered the dead man's suite, I flicked on the light. In order for the woman to give such a thorough description, she'd have had to have been able to see in the dark. Neat trick!
