Edwards (The Body in the Library)

In the novel The Body in the Library, Edwards is the valet of Conway Jefferson. He knows his master better than anyone else does, as other people see only Conway's strength, but Edwards has seen his weakness. He has seen Conway "tired, discouraged, weary of life, momentarily defeated by infirmity and loneliness".
