Title: Masks

Rating: PG
Author's Notes: [McGinty] was popular; for he had a rough, jovial disposition which formed a mask, covering a great deal which lay behind it.



The murderer proved to be a respectable, charming, handsome man.

“Never judge a man by his personal qualities,” said Holmes.

I thought back to my friend’s detachment as he examined the girl’s body. “No,” I agreed.

He had searched for the killer after the police declared it hopeless. Holmes sometimes wears a cold mask. But it is just a mask.
