Do you know if Ann trained as a detective prior to her becoming a farmer's wife. Her methods and style were very much like a detective. She even gave clues away about her former self when she says she was "on duty" or a term like that indicating that the old roles came back into play. One of her husband's friends was a police officer or something like that too. The way she took notes and made checklists and involved herself in the case was remarkable if she hadn't been trained.
But really nothing that Jeremy said was more than what someone might if they had just won the lottery. After an act of carelessness, he had by no fault of his own ended up inheriting a vast fortune one that he appears to be only too willing to share with other the beneficiaries.
Ann sort of wonders why Nevill himself had not put the loaded gun away from the children, into the gun cabinet, as he too would have noted it, so she thought, but was he even in the kitchen? Or was he still out worrying about the harvest till all hours of the night?
Now as it happens I did see the signs of a farm issue from the clues in the Raid Team statements. There were 2 cars parked near the house. We are told by Ann one was Nevill's (was it a Citroen?) and the other, someone suggested, belonged to a farmworker who took the tractor home rather than his private car. The sort of thing that would happen if the farmwork went on too late to drive past the house and wake everyone one up, IMO.
