38. Natalie tells Alice what she knows

Natalie and Alice continue talking about what they know. They are walking by the fence, outside Lawrence Windsor’s mansion.

 

Natalie: Mariana’s comic collection is huge. You can tell that she loves comics just as much as her father loves the Turner drawings.

Alice: Don’t you think that Mariana behaves a bit strangely?

Natalie: I agree. She does behave strangely. When I asked her about the cost of one of her comic books, she got awkward. Do you think we should call her a suspect?

Alice: I don’t know. Maybe she knows something and doesn’t want to say.

Natalie: Why do you think she isn’t telling us everything she knows?

Alice: She could be protecting someone.

Natalie: Who? The thief?

Alice: It’s possible. The thief is one of the three people seen on the cameras: the mysterious person, the nanny or even her father!
