The Fatal Clues Filming Locations

The police request Roy to aid them in tracking the murderer of Langham, found slain in his room at the Piermont Hotel. In looking over the scene of the crime, Roy finds an unset emerald on the floor. A peach bearing tooth-marks is also found by the criminologist. Roy's suspicion is directed toward Hawkins, a society man, who has the suite next to the murdered man's room. Searching the suspect's rooms, Roy finds a fob from which the stone is missing. The emerald fits the setting perfectly. The criminologist takes up his quarters in the murdered man's room. Hiding in the closet, he hears Hawkins stealthily enter and search for something. Later, he succeeds in securing an invitation to dinner from the society man. As they sit at the table, Hawkins reaches over and selects a peach from the fruit bowl. He bites into it. His attention is distracted and the man lays the fruit down. Roy steals the peach. Hawkins discovers the fruit has disappeared. The suspect attempts to shoot the criminologist, but the man is seized and placed under arrest. Taken to police headquarters, Hawkins breaks down and confesses his guilt.
