He folded his arms across his chest and replied defensively, “I’m only looking through her husband’s things, not hers. Whoever Mrs. Myrddin is, she’s not relevant to my scholarly inquiries.”
This is ridiculous. How is she *not* relevant? Preston is supposed to be a good scholar! He should know to speak to everyone he can who is closely connected to Myrddin.
This is just poor plot contrivance.
