Overview

This is one of the secret chronicles of Headquarters in New York City, the first of a series of adventures of Thatcher Colt, Police Commissioner of New York City. Mr. Abbot was Mr. Colt's friend and secretary and tells here the baffling case of a beautiful girl, found hacked with an axe and buried nude in a shallow grave behind a bungalow in the woods. Nearby was a stream where pigeons came to drink and seven pigeons were found dead, with red stains on their white breasts. They had drunk from the brook that ran red with the blood of Geraldine Foster. The Medical Examiner said the girl had been killed only two days-but the pigeons had been dead two weeks. That was what Thatcher Colt started with in his strange quest for the murderer. Fulton Oursler (1893-1952) started as an author, and later became senior editor of Reader's Digest. He wrote a series of mysteries as by Anthony Abbot. About the Murder of Geraldine Foster was published in 1930.
