Rain strikes the windows of Blackthorn House. Eleanor steps away for seven minutes; when she returns, the sealed letter that could expose her secret is gone.

The study door is still locked. Three guests were close enough to take it—and each has a reason to keep Eleanor quiet.

“Nobody entered,” Miles insists. “I left the house before nine.”
