Na podzim roku 1920 si lady Eleanor sl\u00edbila, \u017ee si od vy\u0161et\u0159ov\u00e1ni vra\u017ed dop\u0159eje pauzu. Kdy\u017e v\u0161ak na ve\u010de\u0159i ve Farrington Manor n\u00e1hle zem\u0159e m\u00edstn\u00ed politik a kucha\u0159ka pan\u00ed Pitkinov\u00e1 je obvin\u011bna z jeho otravy, Eleanor v\u00ed, \u017ee mus\u00ed zas\u00e1hnout. S v\u011brn\u00fdm buldo\u010dkem Gladstonem po boku se pou\u0161t\u00ed do p\u00e1tr\u00e1n\u00ed \u2013 a kdy\u017e se najde dal\u0161\u00ed mrtv\u00e9 t\u011blo a dal\u0161\u00ed sladkost je pln\u00e1 jedu, je jasn\u00e9, \u017ee vrah nen\u00ed daleko.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eZd\u00e1 se, Clifforde, \u017ee jsem se, vlastn\u011b jsme se znovu zapletli do vy\u0161et\u0159ov\u00e1n\u00ed mo\u017en\u00e9 vra\u017edy. Proto\u017ee to mus\u00ed b\u00fdt prvn\u00ed v\u011bc, kterou je pot\u0159eba zjistit. Jestli to byla vra\u017eda, nebo ne\u0161\u0165astn\u00e1 n\u00e1hoda.“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clifford si upravil dokonale vyrovnan\u00e9 \u0161vy b\u00edl\u00fdch rukavi\u010dek.
\u201eZajist\u00e9, mo\u017en\u00e1 by to bylo vhodn\u00e9 zjistit je\u0161t\u011b d\u0159\u00edv, ne\u017e pan\u00ed Pitkinovou zam\u011bstn\u00e1te?“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eleanor zalapala po dechu. \u201eNa to jsem nepomyslela!“ Pokr\u010dila rameny. Ale zd\u00e1 se, \u017ee mou nab\u00eddku nep\u0159ijme. D\u016fle\u017eit\u00e9 je, jestli pan\u00ed Pitkinov\u00e1 ud\u011blala chybu, nebo se n\u011bkdo z\u00e1m\u011brn\u011b rozhodl pana Arise zab\u00edt. Jestli\u017ee se m\u00e1 pan\u00ed Pitkinov\u00e9 v\u011b\u0159it, pak se zd\u00e1, \u017ee jedin\u00fdm mo\u017en\u00fdm z\u00e1v\u011brem je vra\u017eda.“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clifford se\u0161pulil rty. \u201eMo\u017en\u00e1 bych m\u011bl promluvit s Abigail a po\u017e\u00e1dat ji, aby m\u011bla nastra\u017een\u00e9 u\u0161i ohledn\u011b jak\u00e9koli informace, kter\u00e1 by se k n\u00ed dostala?“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eSkv\u011bl\u00fd n\u00e1pad, Clifforde.“ Abigail byla nete\u0159 Sandforda, majordoma Fenwick-Langhamov\u00fdch. Pracovala jako p\u00edsa\u0159ka na chipstonesk\u00e9 policejn\u00ed stanici a p\u0159ed \u010dasem pomohla Eleanor a Cliffordovi vy\u0159e\u0161it vra\u017edu na Langham Manoru. \u201eA j\u00e1 se pod\u00edv\u00e1m, co se m\u016f\u017eu dozv\u011bd\u011bt od vrchn\u00edho inspektora Seldona. Vzhledem k tomu, ze Farringtonovi jsou velice vlivn\u00ed, p\u0159edpokl\u00e1d\u00e1m, \u017ee hlavn\u00ed vy\u0161et\u0159ov\u00e1n\u00ed se povede z Oxfordu.“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kancel\u00e1\u0159 detektiva vrchn\u00edho inspektora Seldona se nach\u00e1zela na hlavni policejn\u00ed stanici ve m\u011bst\u011b. U\u017e p\u0159edt\u00edm byl pov\u011b\u0159en vy\u0161et\u0159ov\u00e1n\u00edm vra\u017edy na Langham Manoru. M\u011bl rovn\u011b\u017e slabost pro Eleanor. Pot\u00e9 co zatkli Lancelota Fenwick-Langhama, Eleano\u0159ina ob\u010dasn\u00e9ho n\u00e1padn\u00edka, jejich vztah dosti ochladl, jen\u017ee Eleanor v\u011bd\u011bla, \u017ee bude pot\u0159ebovat ve\u0161kerou mo\u017enou pomoc, aby prok\u00e1zala nevinu pan\u00ed Pitkinov\u00e9. Zavrt\u011bla hlavou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eExistuje ale cel\u00e1 \u0159ada ot\u00e1zek, kter\u00e9 pot\u0159ebuj\u00ed odpov\u011bdi, ne\u017e budeme moct doj\u00edt k n\u011bjak\u00e9mu z\u00e1v\u011bru.“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eZajist\u00e9, m\u00e1 pan\u00ed. Pot\u0159ebujeme p\u0159esn\u011b ur\u010dit, kdy byl p\u0159ipraven ten inkriminovan\u00fd fond\u00e1n, kter\u00fd vedl k ne\u0161\u0165astn\u00e9mu \u00famrt\u00ed pana Arise.“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eA nejenom kdy byl p\u0159ipraven, Clifforde, ale tak\u00e9 kdo, krom\u011b pan\u00ed Pitkinov\u00e9, mohl m\u00edt mo\u017enost do n\u011bj n\u011bco p\u0159im\u00edchat. A\u010dkoli n\u011bkdo ho mohl nahradit dezertem s ara\u0161\u00eddy p\u0159\u00edmo u stolu.“

\u201eZa p\u0159edpokladu, samoz\u0159ejm\u011b, \u017ee p\u0159\u00ed\u010dinou byl ten dezert.“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eCo m\u00e1te na mysli, Clifforde?“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eP\u0159em\u00fd\u0161l\u00edm, jestli policie p\u0159edpokl\u00e1d\u00e1, \u017ee smrt pana Arise zavinily ara\u0161\u00eddy v dezertu. Co kdy\u017e byl ov\u0161em pan Aris ve skute\u010dnosti otr\u00e1ven jedem?“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eA fond\u00e1n vyu\u017eit, aby to zakryl?“ Zamra\u010dila se. \u201eTo vypad\u00e1 tro\u0161ku nepravd\u011bpodobn\u011b, kdy\u017e o tom \u010dlov\u011bk p\u0159em\u00fd\u0161l\u00ed. Chci \u0159\u00edct, pro\u010d podstupovat v\u0161echny ty probl\u00e9my s p\u0159id\u00e1v\u00e1n\u00edm ara\u0161\u00edd\u016f do fond\u00e1nu a pak Arise otr\u00e1vit? Vzhledem k jeho prudk\u00e9 reakci na pouhou zm\u00ednku o ara\u0161\u00eddech nezd\u00e1 se skoro jist\u00e9, \u017ee by stejn\u011b zem\u0159el?“

Clifford pomalu p\u0159ik\u00fdvl. \u201eTo je skv\u011bl\u00e1 p\u0159ipom\u00ednka, m\u00e1 pan\u00ed.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eleanor zav\u00e1hala. \u201eMysl\u00edte… hm\u2026 \u017ee to pan\u00ed Pitkinov\u00e1 mohla ud\u011blat… z\u00e1m\u011brn\u011b?“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eVskutku, m\u00e1 pan\u00ed. A sem p\u0159i\u0161la pouze sehr\u00e1t roli zoufale nevinn\u00e9 \u017eeny. Jej\u00ed zd\u00e1nliv\u00e9 rozru\u0161eni nemus\u00ed b\u00fdt nic jin\u00e9ho ne\u017e divadlo.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n
