Secrets
Creeping out of Belgium to England, in an effort to get back to France, Monsieur and Madame Th�nardier were constantly on the alert. In England, it was necessary to take a roundabout way, and Monsieur was quick to go to the cheapest and obscurest inn in Burdock.
The innkeeper, Monsieur observed, seemed to be mad. He was continually ranting on a set of books that he loved and set great store by. Monsieur also observed that the service was bad.
Before they left, Monsieur captured the books. He called it revenge, and Madame didn't argue. The service was bad.
