(Just like The Case of the Missing Socks, the following mystery is also based on a true story) Just as I was about to retire for the night, I was alerted to the possibility of an intruder…or, as I like to call this category of intruder, a “visitor.” “Don’t be alarmed,” said my wife, “but … More Mister Y’s mysteries (part 4): The Night Visitor
