"Sometimes antagonistic questioning can lead to valuable insights, even though I confess I possess little talent for such questioning myself. It was worth what small amount of discomfort it may have caused the Lady. By all means, let us get a copy of the Screamer as you suggest, and then head to the estate. While one would think the Screamer an obvious source of clues that would have been examined in some depth already, I've found it surprising how willfully ignorant people can be when their loved ones are involved."
