Clive Parsons returns to his flat, and hides some jewellery. Two policemen appear and arrest him, for a neighbour has seen him entering through the kitchen window. Clive explains that he has lost his key and asks them to fetch the neighbour, James Strang, who will establish his identity. Strang, having arrived, apologizes; he had though it might be the mysterious jewel thief known as ’the shadow’. After drinks, the police depart, and Strang reveals he has grounds for his suspicion. Parsons allows himself to be blackmailed into handing over the jewels, and the police return by arrangement, to apprehend the wanted man.
