Death by own action or a calculated trap
In a tense detective scene, Vance argues the case against suicide for Coe, noting a bolted inner door, slippers with heavy boots, a dressing gown, an unfinished note, and a dropped fountain pen. He contends an unseen interruption halted Coe mid writing before a swift death, with Doctor Doremus expected to weigh in.
