17. The car that picked me up stopped in front of the police station; inside I was told the Chief was away for a few days. My tale would have to wait. I spent the afternoon at my desk trying to piece the story together. At five o’clock, I had finished my report and returned to Mrs. Johnson’s house. 18. It was just like being home with my mother again. She handed me a letter that had been delivered by hand in the afternoon
Dear Mr.Smith, We always had such a quiet life on the hill.When my father was alive,he never allowed visitors.Dar jo was the only person my father had confidence in;he:never had any in me.Nor in my choice of a husband.When he died of a heart attack after my marriage,I blamed myself and was overcome with guilt.I would have killed myself, but I had a little daughter to take care of and a husband I loved.To keep the land and the money,my husband and I were prohibited by my father's will from living together.It seemed that the only way to provide for my daughter and husband and still stay close to the land I loved was to "disappear."Small plane crashes are very convenient
Dear Mr.Smith, We always had such a quiet life on the hill. When my father was alive, he never allowed visitors. Darjo was the only person my father had confidence in; he never had any in me. Nor in my choice of a husband. When he died of a heart attack after my marriage, I blamed myself and was overcome with guilt.I would have killed myself, but I had a little daughter to take care of and a husband I loved. To keep the land and the money, my husband and I were prohibited by my father’s will from living together. It seemed that the only way to provide for my daughter and husband and still stay close to the land I loved was to “disappear.”Small plane crashes are very convenient
It was a very difficult life for both my husband and me. Fortunately I had the comfort of the good Sisters of the Valley who sheltered me:I never had to worry about their talking to someone about me. My husband was not a good businessman,as my father had suspected.He began to lose our fortune,and we were faced with selling the land I loved and perhaps separation.I reluctantly agreed to his plan to marry a wealthy woman.That plan was helped along by the efforts of Ms.Ryan,a very capable woman who was my best friend in school

One wife led to another,and you know the rest. What our don't know is:how did those women die?and why did we call the police in? Mrs.Munsing was:letting her suspicions run in unpleasant directions and we could never take such a crazy person into our confidence.We thought we could appease her with a police investigation.We felt safe leaving the investigation to our local police:we had not counted on your cleverness,however.The Chief of Police is a kind soul,but not very intelligent.He was more concerned with keeping my husband's goodwill than in doing his duty.Besides the deaths were accidental in a manner of speaking

Mrs.Munsing herself killed the second Mrs.Fitch, but only by her own stupidity.She mistakenly used the leaves of a poisonous plant instead of mint in the lemonade she gave the second Mrs.Fitch.But was that her fault really?I grew the plant and my blind girl picked the leaves and gave them to Mrs.Munsing.The rest was fate. The death of the third Mrs.Fitch was fate as well. She became frightened when she saw me coming toward her down the narrow cliff path.She took an unfortunate step backwards and fell off the cliff.Could I really be to blame?
