The face of the man in the ill-fitting coat just misted up so that it hardly looked human.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn theory this mental portrait was good enough, but now it was replaced by fleeting images which should have added up to one and the same man but which refused to get themselves into focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe circumstances of Monsieur Gallet's death all seem fake: the name the deceased was travelling under and his presumed profession, and more worryingly, his family's grief.
