It is the thinking of the heart, and nature and the physical world, as well as music and tradition, can be helpful in following the path.

Men förutom det var det en hel del som var underligt med fallet. Det hade försvunnit en massa föremål från hemmet: en ryggsäck, en kokbok, en diamantring, ett stetoskop, en puderdosa, ett par byxor, en sko, några glödlampor och en burk borsyrepulver.
