On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Clarke, dressed for going out, took her handbag with some money and her key in it, pulled the door behind her to lock it and went to the over 60s Club.She always went there on Thursday. It was a nice outing for an old woman who lived alone. At six o’clock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke in her house?How?How?Had someone got in?She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign of forced entry.

She settled down to wait. It was just after four o’clock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire appeared through the letter-box, and then a hand.The wire turned and caught around the knob on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand.There was a shout outside, and the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove.
