Black Jack by Max Brand (top android ebook reader txt) π
His sister's voice cut into his musing. She had two tones. One might be called her social register. It was smooth, gentle--the low-pitched and controlled voice of a gentlewoman.

"Are you forty-nine, Vance?"
"I'm not fifty, at least," he countered.

"Why did Cornwall run away this morning? I hoped to take him on a trip."
