Plot Summary. Belle, born poor and now a music hall dancer, wants to be “a lady.”. She is also curious about the identity of the “gentleman” who is secretly dating her friend, Daisy. After she sees him rushing from Daisy’s room, she finds Daisy dead, next to an open bible with a moss rose on it.
Police Inspector R. Clinner and Sergeant Evans tell the lodgers that Daisy was drugged and then smothered or strangled. Clinner, an amateur horticulturalist, notes that the rose is a moss rose, which requires an acidic soil and is currently out of season.
When a music-hall dancer is murdered, a moss rose marks the page of a Bible next to her body. Luckily, another chorus girl saw a gentleman leaving the lodgings. She approaches him directly, saying she'll go to the police if he doesn't meet her demands, but he brushes her off contemptuously.
