Lauren herself??
She had left the party early, pleading a headache.
No lack of opportunity, presuming she had a gun.
She might, conceivably, have brought one in in a large-enough suitcase.
( Check on the Payne luggage.
) She might now have taken it away again.
Motive -- her husband wandering??
Bitter, unreasoning jealousy??
Heaven knew it happened and hell knew it too.
But -- it happened, almost always, among the primitive and, usually, among the very young.
( Call it mentally young ; ;
call it retarded.
) There was nothing to indicate that Lauren Payne was primitive.
She did not move in primitive circles.
She was young, but not that young.
