Back

The gamekeeper has recently taught Michael how to shoot since his job requires him to teach the heirs. But Richard learnt not from him but from his mother.

It is tradition for the inhabitants of the manor to learn how to shoot from a young age. It shows they belong to the aristocracy. Two members of the family are really great shots.

Family tree

Who is going to jail ? And why?

She needed to prevent a scandal. She didn't think her son could face the disgrace. Freddy told her he knew he couldn't have children but didn't ask for more. She took measures to prevent her son to be disinherited and tried to steal the will after Freddy's death. When Sandra received the result for Richard and his DNA test, she understood that he wasn't Freddy's son. She asked Annabelle for help and support in becoming the new lady of the house. She threatened her with anonymous letters. She was too stupid to be left alive. She tried to frame Michael for her murder. When Lucinda and Simon discovered the clue and th book, she understood that Freddy had played them and had hidden the will in the passageway. She wasn't quick enough in finding it before them so she acted rashly and tried to kill them.
Beneficiary: Teddy Reason: only one in this family to have told me the truth. Annabelle cheated on me because she didn't want me to find out I couldn't have children. Tara was pregnant before marrying me. As if I couldn't do the maths. They all wanted my fortune and title. Teddy is the only one who loved me for who I was. The only real family I have. Henry told me the truth when asked. Told me Annabelle would have killed him if he had said anything.
