Description:
Continued from part I... With Jenny Roberts’s help, Detective Pat Ethan begins to unravel the mystery. Ethan returns to Holstein’s to ask about the stolen, rare Haugaard book, which Holstein had ordered for Dr. Marcus. Captain Quinn and Detective Ethan meet. The detective explains how Eugene Meltsner’s stolen car was recovered at a gas station in a nearby town. Ethan continues to question Jenny, who remembers more details about the surroundings of the kidnappers’ hideout. Using sound effect discs, Jenny is able to identify the sound of an industrial pneumatic chisel, used at demolition sites. Quinn says Eugene’s car had concrete dust on it, perhaps from a demolition site. They rush to the scene of an abandoned building for clues to the robber's hideout. The story continues in part III...

Questions:
What was the big mistake the robbers made in taking Jenny hostage? Have you ever misjudged anyone by their outward appearance? If so, what did you learn from your mistake?
