THE SHADOW was sure that his watch was right. It showed five twenty-five, and his haircut was finished. But it was easy enough to waste the next five minutes in Cranston’s leisurely way. The Shadow put on his coat, fixed his tie in the mirror, and was finally adjusting his hat, when Thull came.

With a nudge toward Cranston’s watch pocket, Tony went to the counter and sold the stooped man a nickel cigar. The Shadow, glancing at his watch behind Thull’s back, saw that Tony was correct about the time. He saw Thull shamble out; then gave a nod to Tony, who triumphantly climbed a chair and pushed the big hand of the clock some twenty minutes ahead.

“You see?” queried Tony, coming down from the chair. “Right at a half-past five -“

Tony blinked. His new customer was gone, his briefcase with him. He had simply strolled from the barber shop while Tony was setting the clock. But Tony, in his surprise, thought that the stranger had vanished like a shadow.

The customer would have done just that, had it been necessary at the time. For The Shadow had picked up a trail that he could not afford to lose. He was sure that Armand Thull, the human clock, was none other than the Time Master!
