if 2 people worked 8 hours per day, and each planted 17 trees per hour, (that’s about one tree every 3 1/2 minutes), they could do it. If they had help, then it’s conceivable.
Last week, I surmised “the butler did it” (to quote Inspector Wang from “Murder by Death”!) I guess it turns out that the Butler was in on it, he just didn’t actually commit the murder. I wonder if my motive was correct?
I don’t think the ‘no traces of nicotine’ on the strangulation marks is an issue, because there were no comments whatsoever of an autopsy. Imagine what an autopsy on someone hundreds of years old would reveal? However, my theory is, since Ramon had no children, he killed her because his family’s service to Flammel will die with him. So, instead of bearing the shame of allowing someone else to carry on as her servant, he killed her. You know the old adage: the Butler did it…
I wouldn’t mind seeing Les gone as well. However, since Tiffany isn’t the mean witch she once was, we have to have SOME protagonist SOMEwhere. Besides, I’m still hoping against hope that the “donation” swindle that Les pulled a while back comes to light and bites him HARD!!! I find it hard to believe that Greg Evans would simply ‘allow’ Les to get away with it. Where’s the lesson? That you CAN get away with it? Crime DOES pay?
Went to CK, couldn’t find it. They don’t appear to have DT there. Do you have to have an account to see it or something?
