The Wife said she was in bed reading a book.
The Cook claimed she cooking breakfast.
The Gardener claimed he was planting seeds.

2)The flowers that Detective Smith had so lovingly picked for his wife were poisonous. He had unknowingly chanced upon a patch of Aconitum (more commonly called monkshood) and when his wife cut her finger the poison contained in the plant's juices entered into the open wound causing her death by suffocation.

Aconitum is one of the oldest known toxins. The plant is extremely poisonous. The plant figures heavily into mythologies of many cultures, more commonly called monkshood. Aconitum is Greek for "without struggle". The entire plant is poisonous, but the roots and leaves contain the greatest concentration of aconitine and other alkaloids. Even touching the plant's juices to an open wound will cause pain, fainting sensations, and possibly suffocation. As with many poisonous plants, there is no specific antidote.

1)When Detective Charles was outside, he saw the window, along with shattered pieces of glass under his feet. This meant that the glass was broken from inside. The keeper had gone to his mother's place, and the only person who had access to the inside of the house was Mr. Ricky.

It was confirmed that Mr. Ricky faked the robbery to get the insurance money.
