However you will note as you listen to it that I have taken the liberty of describing an alphabetic table that is included in the story rather than narrating it. I didn't see any other way to deal with it. Please let me know if this is appropriate or if you wish to bounce it off Jo first. Whatever you two decide I will be glad to comply with.

The alphabetical table was definitely disorganized; it couldn't be explained. The way you handled it seems entirely fitting to me. Jo may have more expertise; perhaps she could offer her opinion too. I'm satisfied with what you've done.

I was somewhat surprised to discover that this case was related to India, haha. The twist at the end caught me off guard.

P.S. Just want to confirm, did Mr. Singh Bandematarain kill Captain Shirley

Hi sati.

I don't think it is necessary to bother Jo with the issue. I can think of no other resolution anyway. I listened to "accent" at 09:56 and it sounds fine to me so I will leave it alone.

As to whether Mr. Singh Bandematarain did the deed? I guess we all both find out shortly!

How are you finding the book so far?

Why do my attempts to guess the perpetrator always end up being off the mark?

This time, I couldn't have guessed that it was Dr. Haynes, the father, behind all of this!

I guess that's the whole idea behind a well written mystery. We should not be able to guess what the story will be as it unfolds.

Hi,
Everything is fine, except at 23:18 "Sandoval, we learned, had been there" is missed.

P.S I have an interview on 15th Feb, so I may not be able to respond quickly. I appreciate your patience. I'll try my best to do them.
