Who’s the villain?

No. 1, who isn’t, because I am.

Coroner Cleland, who despite saying he was willing to wait for any further evidence to further his judicial conclusions, didn’t .

Paul Lawson, who spoke of an original body?

Stuart Littlemore, who didn’t ask Boxall if he knew someone named Keane.

David Morgan, for being, you know, David Morgan.

Jessica Harkness, who nearly keeled over when confronted with the bust.

All those who bought and read my book but didn’t leave a review.

Nick Pelling, and why not.

Clive, puns, need I say more.

Freeman’s friends and family with him in the car when the RoK was found and said nothing, ever.

The Adelaide Advertiser, for being asleep at the wheel for over 70 years.

Derek Abbott, who reckoned a qualified electrical tradesmen used home-made tools.

Jo, who reckons that SM wore dresses,  high heels and danced unreservedly in gay nightclubs.

And anyone else who thinks that this mystery is solved.

Thank you and good evening.
