Contessa Brindey helped Victoria sneak out of the hotel to be with Charles. She also arranges with the assassin, the Cyclops, to steal Victoria’s sapphire necklace. Before the man can get the necklace, Victoria’s little brother, Karl, takes it and sells it so he and Lucas, Brindey’s son can go on an adventure. Sinclair is believed to be Victoria’s lover and when the necklace is believed to be stolen, he is the obvious suspect.
