Tenant (world Classic Mystery Library 2)
General Fiction房客（世界经典推理文库2）
(u. S.) Mary Belloc Lowndes
A couple in a family hotel who are financially strapped receive a mysterious tenant. He pays readily, behaves elegantly, but has a rather eccentric temperament. Every time he goes out, he has some mysterious connection with the murders that occur repeatedly in the city. The hostess Ellen, on the one hand, was grateful for the tenant's generosity, which saved the couple's troubled life, but on the other hand, she had to suspect that the tenant was a notorious "serial killer." She is faced with a dilemma: should she report him and bring him to justice, or should she protect him from harm? In this entanglement, the truth is approaching step by step.
