The woman who disappeare d

[سندريلا الشرق]

Lenny Samuel is a private detective who is asked by a woman to do a job for him for 50 dollars a day. The woman, Helen Garfield, wants him to find his sister Elaine who disappeare d.

He starts the investigat ion and is attacked a couple of times by two men. In the end he finds out they are criminals.
Elaine’s colleague Suzy tells Lenny that Elaine often went to the Las Cabanas club, where she met a man called Benny Greep. When Lenny goes to Benny’s apartment he finds him dead in the bath. He is arrested for the murder of Benny but the police lets him go after he told what happened. The police starts to investigat e all about Helen, and finds out there is no Helen Garfield.

The next time Lenny and “Helen” meet she tells him the whole story:
Her name was Elaine and there never existed a Helen. Elaine went to Las Cabanas every night to see Benny Greep, who played there in the band. Two men, obviously criminals, always came to Las Cabanas with big bags. One night she manages to look into a bag and it was full of jewellery. Then Benny and Elaine stole one of the bags an hid it in Elaine’s apartment. When the criminals found out, Elaine moved into a hotel and hired Lenny. She thought that if the criminals found her, Lenny would find out and go after them.

The story ends well: at the same moment the criminals try to get the bag back they are arrested. Poor Lenny, he his not paid for all his efforts because Elaine has no money after returning the bag with the jewels
