It was midmorning and we’d been working. Again, we all sat at the kitchen table. Elizabeth made a cup of coffee for Derek. He had a satchel and took out some papers, which he set on the table. “Mr. Isherwood and I interviewed the entire staff one by one, individually,” he said. “We felt this was the best approach. Best not to point the blame when we don’t have actual proof. What I’ve brought here”—he touched the papers—“is affidavits. All signed and dated. Every single employee of the Essex Hot...el, including the fact that Mr. Isherwood questioned me, and I questioned him. For the record.”
“Nobody knew anything, I bet,” Elizabeth said.
“Three employees, who will remain anonymous, said, without provocation, things like, ‘Sounds like something bellman Padgett would do.’ ‘Sounds like’ is speculation, and we can’t legally follow up on that. Between you and me and the moon, we came down hard on Padgett. He’s a squirmy bastard, that one, I don’t mind telling you.
