From: Memoirs of a butler


The memoirs are rumoured to be full of tempting secrets. Affairs. Sedition. Furtling. Someone will be interested in the manuscript. You should steal it from the publisher's office.

Success

A pacy page-turner

The publisher's office offers only a token resistance to your larcenous skills. The manuscript hasn't even been locked in the safe. What a collection of delightful secrets. If you ever employ a butler you think you might choose a blind one.


Failure

A little slow

By the time you arrive at the publisher's office, someone else has stolen the manuscript. Can one trust nobody in this city?
