She was also the queen or at least the princess of small talk should it be necessary. After finishing a discussion with both the Inspector and her hunting partner she joined the Major Tyler. “My good Major, What a fine beast you have there…” There was a chuckle, the Lady continued. “I see you are missing your man, he is not sick is he?
