Victoria Hamilton - Vintage Kitchen 04 - No Mallets Intended - Plot & Excerpts
She had called Haskell Lockland from Mrs. Stubbs’s room and the gentleman came right over, asked Mrs. Stubbs all about it and was able, with the help of a collections assistant at the Wolverhampton Howler, to verify her story about Mrs. Dumpe’s July 4, 1993, accident. He called the court secretary to add a protest to the will he had filed and said he would be coming in the very next day with the society’s lawyer to file a challenge with proof why the will could not be valid. Given the flimsy nature of the will itself, Haskell postulated that Prentiss had drafted and hidden the will in the kitchen. He probably did not expect it to stand up to a court review; Jaymie suggested that this was his attempt to put pressure on the heritage society. Given the deep pockets the heritage society now had from the sale of the valuable letter Jaymie had discovered in the spring, he likely thought the heritage society would try to buy him off. It was a reasonable assumption, given the time and money the society had already put into the historic house.
