This suggests Leela is a murderer and echoes undesirably on her character and integrity. Leela now has the right to file suit against Daily Speed as her reputation as a prominent women’s right activist has been…

The tone is dark and religious, and the theme is lying, trust, and deceit. The main protagonist of The Crucible…
