:02:41
...and old love.
:02:50
Married love...
:02:55

:03:02
My name is Claude Chavasse.
:03:04
I am what you would call "a private eye. "

It was Monday, June 11, 6:15 a.m.
:03:11

the nightwatch on the Place Vendôme...

a business conference in London...
:03:46
...she was conferring nightly
in Suite 14 of the Ritz.
