Death of the Wild Bird — John Newton Chance

When Jonathan Blake came to LOHM to find out about revolver shooting, he discovered that the premises were apparently deserted. But he soon found himself locked in - with a dead woman and a man who stood over her with a gun in his hand. But why would a business tycoon murder a wild bird and wreck his whole life? Blake didn't believe that he would, but it is hard to prove innocence when you have seen the end part of the act committed and there is no other person in the building.
