My dear readers,

What a game this has been! I must confess, I did not expect such sharp-eyed company. You have proven yourselves most formidable indeed.

I invited you to find four differences, but some of you, with particularly keen sight (or perhaps a little luck), discovered that there were truly six! Well done, you sly observers.

Here they are, revealed at last:

1. The Fabergé egg upon the table — rather fine, isn’t it?
2. Rockford’s hand position — though I assure you, he claims he was always standing like that.
3. The book on the table — a favorite volume, but it seems to have moved.
4. Glenraven’s waistcoat — a subtle change of style. One must keep up appearances.
5. The vase of flowers — a touch of rearrangement for charm.
6. The candelabra candles — let’s blame the draught for that one.

I am thoroughly impressed.

As promised, two of you have been selected at random to receive a $5 Amazon gift card as a token of my personal admiration:

🏆 Lana Birky
🏆 Carole Burant

Congratulations to you both! May your good fortune continue.

But before you depart the drawing room, a final word — this is not our last game together. A Dilemma for the Duke was released on Saturday, and I dare say Rockford himself would be delighted to see you there. There are secrets yet to be uncovered, and perhaps even more treasures to be won.

You can find both stories on Amazon. I admit to being partial to A Marriage for the Marquess. But I am certain you understand why. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DR3C66BP
Rockford, I dare say, is just as proud of his story, A Dilemma for the Duke.  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DZJFDSDT

Until our next adventure,

Ewan Glenraven, Marquess of Glenraven
(From the pages of “A Marriage for the Marquess”)

P.S. You never know when the next Barrington’s Brigade game might appear… Best keep your wits sharp!
