Thanks to all who responded on this question. I see from the
information provided by Ed that the story I'm looking for is
actually a story within the COLLECTION "The Dancing
Detective," and not, as I had thought, an alternate title for
the STORY "The Dancing Detective." What I'm actually looking
for is the story "Silent as the Grave." Does anyone know if
it's been anthologized outside this "Dancing Detective"
collection?
