""You defend criminals, don't you?" Kerry Dutton asked Perry Mason.
""Who's the criminal?"
"Dutton touched his breast with his left forefinger.
"Mason looked at his handsome visitor sharply.
""You've been arrested or are out on bail?"
"Dutton shook his head. "I haven't been arrested. I came to you to keep from being arrested -- for embezzlement."
""How much have you embezzled?"
""Looking at it one way it's a quarter of a million dollars."
""From the facts as you tell them," Mason said, "I should pick up the phone and call the police."
""May I tell the story my way?"
"It was a long story and Perry Mason grew more and more puzzled as he listened."
