Though aware of how remarkable her medical expertise was, they were surprised that she also knew how to oversee an interrogation.

“It wouldn't help.” William put on a bitter smile. “In spite of having identified the problem, we still haven't found the perpetrator, and even if we did, it'll be pointless if we aren't able to ferret out whoever is behind all of this.”
