“I understand that, but he went out of his way to try to convince me he wasn’t interested in art and didn’t know much about it, but his dining room walls are hung with a half-dozen nice oil paintings. Not museum-quality by any means, but if he chose them he knows something about painting. On the surface it would make sense that the gold is the big target here, but the painting might also be important. Also, he knew about the safe deposit box where I found the Frank interview report but he didn’t mention it to me. Then the next day when we left the bank Jen and I were chased at very high speed by someone the police could never identify.”

Carole asked him to go through the story of what had happened since Jen had turned up at his door. She questioned him especially closely about the attack at the Hôtel Chopin, and asked him to repeat his description of the attackers, then she laid two photos on the desk before him. One was black and white, poorly focused, and showed a tall man dressed in 40s style standing between two French policemen, each of them holding an arm. It had been cropped so that only half of each policeman was in the frame, but it was clear they had their man firmly under control. The other appeared to be a frame from the same surveillance video Thom had shown him.

“We’re really interested in this guy,” Carole said, tapping her index finger on the surveillance clip. “We’re pretty sure he was in the group that tried to kidnap Mr. Castor, and we think he may have been the man who cut up the French hotel clerk so badly. “Our embassy asked the Paris police for the mug shots, but they only got two of the three Germans so we had to make do with our own — this is from the camera in the long-term parking lot at Sarasota airport, and it shows this man stealing the car that hit Mr. Castor.
