Christobel Clode

In the short story Motive v. Opportunity, Christobel Clode was the granddaughter of Simon Clode. Her father died during the Great War, and her mother had died at her birth. Simon Clode took over and raised Christobel and became very attached to her. He became heartborken when Christobel died very young of pneumonia at the age of eleven. Simon tried to get in touch with Christobel's spirit with the help of a medium, Mrs Eurydice Spragg who took advantage of the situation.
