Fred Wizell

In the novel Elephants Can Remember, Fred Wizell was the gardener of the Ravenscrofts at Overcliffe. Mrs Buckle, a part-time cleaner there didn't like him. He did not have a very good reputation. She believed he had had a few jail sentences earlier in his life but it seemed that General Ravenscroft wanted to give him a second chance. Mrs Buckle speculated that Fred have been doing a bit of cheating or something and the General had found him out and was going to sack him. That might have given him a motive to kill the General and his wife.
