    “Do you know where Jean de Tournet is?” Jason asked.
    “He is dead, Uncle,” Charlotte said flatly.
    “How do you know?”
    “I killed him in 1943. He was doing business with the Nazis. He tried to rape me” – she stopped and shivered – “but I killed him before he could.”
    Jason and Sophie both looked at Charlotte with horror. This was the first time Jason had showed any genuine emotion throughout the evening. It was fear.”
    ― Hugo Woolley, The Wasp Trap
