Whenever Elliot Norther's wife was nervous she baked. With the murder of Harriet Mason, her husband's close colleague at the Faculty, she had been unable to resist a couple of Victoria sponges. During the frenzied press speculation about the identity of the murderer, a Dundee cake had appeared, followed swiftly by a Battenberg and a Lemon Drizzle.

Robin in the fall,

I chose you because I knew that of all the inhabitants of a world you were the one least likely to fail me. — Edgar Rice Burroughs
