if this doesn't scare you..

I don't know what will. This is an actual paragraph submitted on Dahl's "Lamb to the Slaughter." I've selected the best for you.

A Crazy Lamb (actual title)

Is hide evidence innocent? A lamb like Mary Maloney is really poor, but her poor experience is not the excuse for her crime. She might lose her mind when she killed her husband, but does a mental patient know how to cheat on evidence? Does a person who loese her mind know how to destroy unfavorable evidence?

... She not just cheats on evidence, and she destroys the weapon she used to kill her husband which is frozen meat. She cooks the meat to be the supper of policeman. How perfect the idea is! Let the people who search for evidence eats the evidence. How smart she is! Who is going to believe she is mental patient?

Base on them, Mary should be hold responsible for her crime.
