Dick Martin’s last official job (as he believed) was to pull in Lew Pheeney, who was wanted in connection with the Helborough bank robbery. He found Lew in a little Soho café, just as he was finishing his coffee.
“What’s the idea, colonel?” asked Lew, almost genially, as he got his hat.
“The inspector wants to talk to you about that Helborough job,” said Dick.
