The Indians
Godfrey
Dr Candy
They followed the Moonstone
around the world waiting for an
opportunity to take it back to India. He might have stolen the Moonstone as
revenge for loss of face, because Rachel
turned down his proposal of marriage. As with Godfrey, he lost face because of the quarrelling with Franklin. Rosanna
Rachel
Franklin
She might have taken the diamond either from force of habit, for she was a thief before Rachel’s mother gave her a job or cause a disagreement between Rachel and Franklin. Perhaps she had debts that needed to be paid. He gave the detective as much assistance as he can.
His enthusiasm was the reason why he was suspected, because it was not his business. Find the phrases from the text.1.in order to return an injury.
