====== Vincent Tuck ====== {{ :vincent-tuck.jpg?direct&300|}Vincent Tuck is a private detective based in Wapping, London. A large man with small, sad eyes and a nose that looks as though it’s been broken more than once, his short brown hair is thinning above a florid complexion. He wears a suit shiny from wear and fraying at the cuffs and collar. * According to the last letter of [[Doctor Lionel Trollope]], Tuck was hired by [[Grahame Roby]] to investigate his brother [[Alexander Roby|Alexander Roby's]] associates. * [[Andrew Saunders]] and [[Nathaniel Browne]] called on Tuck, who became upset at the mention of Alexander Roby, but eventually agreed to tell the investigators what he knew of the case. ====What Tuck Knew==== Tuck spent three weeks following Roby in late 1925, and saw that he spent most of his evenings with [[Lawrence Bacon]], [[Malcolm Quarrie]] and [[Montague Edwards]], though Tuck has no real idea what they were doing. He also provided background information on the three men. * After several drinks in a nearby pub, Tuck convinced himself to give Saunders a [[http://www.unboundbook.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/11-Vincent-Tucks-Strange-Report.pdf|typed report]] in which he describes Bacon apparently using black magic to kill a vagrant. * Tuck clearly has a drink problem, possibly worsened by what he saw. * He has asked Saunders and Browne not to come back.
