Thank you for your #579. It seems a plausible explanation of what might have happened to Fuddy if she found herself in a pool of water under seemingly frightening circumstances.
I have been one who believed that such a hit on Fuddy was simply too complicated; that there were much easier, more certain methods. Perhaps it was sufficient to just plan on getting the target in the water at sea. If so, it was not complicated.
Thank you, and you are welcome. I try to shave with Occam’s Razor ...
