“Lang Chapter 14 The next few days in Beakley proceeded at their usual leisurely pace. General consensus amongst the villagers, as reported by Dorothy, was that Gilles the butler was undoubtedly the culprit, probably a covert recruit from an international ring of wine thieves, and had now gone into hiding across the Mexico border. Patrick pointed out that the Mexico border would take a rather long time to reach from the Cotswolds, and Gilles would have been better off nipping onto a ferr...y across to France, but his views were pooh-poohed in favour of a more cinematic outcome. Old Mrs Eldridge, just returned from a seaside stay in Brighton, claimed to have spotted the fugitive butler working incognito as a waiter in the bed and breakfast she was staying at, but given that last month she had telephoned the police at the sighting of a UFO hanging over the village green—which had turned out to be a particularly oddly shaped gibbous moon, half-hidden behind the clouds—this theory was not given much weight.MoreLessRead More Read Less
