DCS Christopher Foyle:
The German woman was protected by influential friends, and it's still possible that it was those friends that wanted her dead. She was as fit as you or me, and yet the family doctor lied about an angina condition on her medical report to prevent her from being interned.

Assistant Commissioner Summers:
So you've arrested him, this doctor?

DCS Christopher Foyle:
No, because he was only a part of it.

Assistant Commissioner Summers:
Are you suggesting there was a conspiracy?

DCS Christopher Foyle:
I'm suggesting that Henry Beaumont, her husband, is rich and influential, and would find it very easy to expect favors. Greta Beaumont went before a tribunal last February. She was given C-registration, and was classified as a refugee from Nazi oppression. Greta Anna Hauptmann - her maiden name - isn't exactly a classic refugee. For starters, she still has two brothers in Germany. One of them served under von Falkenhorst in Norway, and the other is a ranking officer in the Abwehr in Berlin, which should have led to her being interned immediately, and the committee that gave her C-registration must have been blind, idiotic, corrupt, or all three. But, of course, you know all this, don't you? Because you were the chairman of the committee.

Assistant Commissioner Summers:

DCS Christopher Foyle:
Well, I don't think so.
