      London Mysteries - Carla Aira

      http://write.streetlib.com

      Prologue

      London. The capital city of the United Kingdom. The city of business and tourism. One of the most important metropolis in the world.

      Trafalgar Square. National Gallery. Sunday. It is nine o’clock in the morning, just an hour before the opening of the big gates. The square is quiet: Nelson Column in the centre, the two lions alert on both sides. Buses and taxis all around. Usual life in London: chaotic traffic, busy roads.

      A cry! Where is Leonardo’s masterpiece? There is not the painting on the wall !!!

      Russell Square. British Museum. Sunday. It is 9.05 in the morning. It is a very quiet place in the green. Just trees and flower beds all around. The colonnade is not yet crowed with tourists and scholars up and down the stairs.

      A Cry!! The chess…Where are the Lewis chess!!!

      Tate Gallery, now Tate Britain. Millbank, along the River Thames. Sunday. It is 9.10 in the morning. There are boats on the river and people, many tourists, along the banks. The city is already totally alive.

      A cry!!! Beata Beatrix, Beata Beatrix …Where is Beata Beatrix!!!

      City of Westminster. Marylebone Road. Not far from Regent Park and Baker Street, Sherlock Holmes House, and from London Zoo. Madame Tussauds, the famous Wax Museum. It is 9.15 on a Sunday morning. The gates are not open yet, but there is a long queue of people at the entrance ready to go in.

      A cry!!! The queen…Where is the queen? There is not her statue!

      New Scotland Yard. The phones are busy. Chief Inspector Leroy is on the phone with London Mayor. Policemen, agents and inspectors: Londoners are extremely puzzled. London is shocked!

      ​Chapter 1

      Inspector Cluekey

      Inspector Cluekey, Inspector Cluekey ….Where is Inspector Cluekey? I need that man!

      Chief Inspector Leroy is furious: art thefts, in London, on a Sunday morning! Incredible!

      Inspector Clukey comes: he is a tall, thin man, pale, with untidy fair hair and deep blue eyes. He usually wears a white T-shirt with a blue sweater
