Murder Spins the Wheel
“ MICHAEL SHAYNE PULLED UP at the St. Albans, a huge wedding cake of a hotel, standing between Collins Avenue and the ocean. The doorman stepped forward smartly with a half salute.
“Oh, it’s you, Mike,” he said, dropping his hand. “How you doing? Park it for you?”
“Can I leave it here in front so I can take off in a hurry? No more than ten minutes.”
The doorman saw no reason why not. Shayne moved farther along the approach drive and left the Buick beside a No Parking sign. He put hi...s hand in his pocket when he came back, but the doorman waved him away.
“Hell, Mike. Do I ever tip you?”
Inside, Shayne checked with the bell captain and tried several bars and supper rooms before locating the Al Naples party in the Mozambique Room on the roof. The decorations, of course, were tropical, and there was a Latin band and a circular bar where the bartenders were kept busy putting together elaborate rum drinks.MoreLess
