Crime and Peter Chambers - Nursemaid to Three Beautiful Women

Peter is being paid to take care of the three finalists in the Miss Universe Beauty Contest. Making the arrangements is Miss Matilda Cragg, who is representing Mr. Byron Thorndyke, of the Thorndyke Modeling Agency. The winner will receive 50 thousand dollars in cash and a Hollywood contract. Mr. Thorndyke will be the sole judge, and I am here as the chaperone for the young ladies. They will stay overnight at a lovely house on Sutton Place. Mr. Chambers, you are to be there at midnight, because the money will arrive to Mr. Thorndyke just before midnight. You will guard the cash until it is safely deposited in the winner's bank. Later, at midnight, Peter arrives at the Sutton Place address and is met by Lieutenant Louie Parker at the door. He says "I don't think the contest will continue, because Mr. Thorndyke has been murdered".
