Loren P. Shaw, CPA (a certification he earned in night school), came to Tredway with the aid of George Caswell. He has worked himself up mostly by intrigue and personal spying. He knows ''everyone'''s secrets and weaknesses, and can play people as though they were musical instruments--except for Don Walling, whom he regards as no threat because he is "too young" for that.
