Deliberation

Up and coming attorney Flora St. Aubryn has career case on her desk. She is sure the case against Beatric Armitage is circumstantial, but it would put her over the top if she could point the finger at the person responsible for Mr. Armitage’s death. People in the house that evening were:

• Mr. Archibald Armitage, food magnate
• Mrs. Beatrice Armitage, social elitist
• Mr. Chesney, the butler, haughty like his employers
• The Upstairs Maid, nice as far as we know
• Neill Clarendon, Mrs. Armitage’s secretary, polite
