Baldpate Inn has seven keys. The novelist has one key. The other six fall into the hands of six apparent lunatics--(1) a hermit who flees from barbers and women has a key (2) a peroxide blonde who "just loves" men has a key (3) a college professor who has been laughed out of his job has a key (4) a political "boss" who eats cigars alive and he has a key (5) a Belle of High Societee has a key (6) a bold, bad clubman who has a key and--The Girl. She (bless her) hasn't a key, you notice, but she provides one--to the mystery that Baldpate Inn immediately becomes soaked in.
