Stairway to Doom 1 A Stormy Night
A flash of lightning ripped across the night sky. Miss Mallard, the world-famous ducktective, paid the carriage driver and hurried up the stairway that led to Duckinbill Castle.
Lightning struck again, and there was a crash of thunder.
“Stop that!” Miss Mallard quacked at the sky. “You act as if doom awaits me at the castle, not a simple reading of a will!”
Miss Mallard came to the front entrance of the castle. She rapped a rusty iron knocker against the heavy wooden door.
Inspector Willard Widgeon of the Swiss police, and Miss Mallard’s nephew, opened the door.
