“Built by a South African gold king?” I mused.
I gave the turrets one last glance, then  followed the butler inside, thinking to myself that an imposing, nightmare of a house obtained as a result of the ruthless extraction of something precious by a unwanted, unwelcome, and violent outside party might hold great appeal for a villain like Baron Gruner.
