Investigation that Ellery undertakes to solve the mystery of Adam's death.
“You on some sort of unofficial inquiry, Ellery?”
“You might say. Not much of an inquiry, cause it ain’t much of a case.”
“Do I get ta know?”

“All right all right. Suspicious motor vehicle death, two years ago. Poorly investigated, an it might be a murder disguised as an accident.”
“And what has this ta do with you?”
“Nothin. It has ta do with Colson. Old lover, disappeared, never got in touch again, an found out later he was dead and never learned why.”
