Detective Sylvan recoiled from it, and I cannot blame them. The likely murder weapon is a heavy, cast-iron pan. Still, I have noted both times for reference. The police said 1:15, and, to my surprise, Levitas deferred, saying the silver may have confused victim and perpetrator. They proclaimed her death to have occurred at 1:27, give or take a few minutes.
Far too faint for my own ear, but then I am merely Lev’s apprentice, and he has well earned his fame. Levitas listened close to the silver windchime in Miss Cawthorne’s kitchen evidently, her final fall would have disrupted the air somewhat, and it must have still rung faintly. Detective Levitas Sylvan and I arrived at the scene of the crime at 4:00 pm, half an hour after contact from the constable.
