Grant promises, and returns to his desk thinking that he has been talking to a foolish crank. A few minutes later, Murot is dead outside the Chronicle building, a victim of a bullet fired by a revolver equipped with a silencer. Grant searches in the man's pockets for a clue to the mystery but finds only a small marble. He tells Cadogan of the man's warning but the detective laughs at it as a pipe dream. Grant sets about the job in his own way, however, with the result that he rounds up a dangerous band of anarchists, and prevents the attempt of Maura to throw a bomb at the police parade after a struggle atop a skyscraper.
