Integrating skills:
1. Who did the detective suspect?
He suspected Rachel had stolen her own diamond with Rosanna’s assistance. He thought that Rosanna has hidden Rachel’s paint-stained garment and made a new one to replace it. Later on he started to suspect Godfrey when he heard that Rachel broke off their engagement and he had been attacked by Indians.
2. Why didn’t Rachel answer Sergeant Cuff’s questions?
Rachel did not answer because she had seen Franklin take the diamond and didn’t want him to be caught.
3. Why didn’t Franklin remember taking the diamond?
Franklin did not remember taking the diamond because Mr Candy had drugged his drink to make him sleep. The opium made him move the diamond without remembering doing so.
4.Sergeant Cuff didn’t find the Moonstone or prove who murdered Godfrey, but the passage gives some clues about who might have done it. Who do you think was guilty? What clues can you find?
It is implied that the Indians were responsible for Godfrey’s murder and the disappearance of the Moonstone.
Clues:
Godfrey was attacked by Indians in London-perhaps they knew he was the real thief and had the Moonstone.
It was later reported that the Moonstone had returned to the statue of the moon god.
