Spoiler
The murderer was Jamie MacArthur, who was hoping to marry Bella but was unable to do so as a result of her father's intervention. Jamie devised a way to lure Bella's father to a butcher shop where he killed him using the butcher's tools. He then disposed of the bones in a sackcloth bag and dumped it in the river.

Case Summary

Frustrated by Bella's father's refusal to allow him to marry Bella, Jamie MacArthur concocted a plan to make him disappear. He intercepted one of the grandmother's frequent errand lists and wrote the address of an out-of-the-way butcher's shop on it. He then knocked out the butcher, waited until Bella's father arrived, killed him and ground him up into haggis using the the implements found there at the butcher shop. He disposed of the bones by tossing them into an old butcher's sack and throwing it into the river.

I'm sure you, as the target, are more cognizant than I that we cannot allow your life to be put in constant danger. The precautions you have taken do not appear to be adequate. As a result, the other leaders and I believe that we must bridge the chasm with the Montagnards. I advise you to invite Citizen Gerard and his wife to our weekly dinner. I will attend as well. It's a purely social gathering to help clear the air, no discussion of politics will be allowed."
 ==Dialogue==

-*'''Madame Hennebert (The victim's wife):''' ''I've feared just such an event for weeks! My husband has endured many death threats ever since his vote to spare the king. He even took the extraordinary precaution of hiring Armand to protect himself.''
-*'''Olivier Gedet (Deputy of the Assembly):''' ''I hope I'm not to blame in any respect. It was I who advised Hennebert to invite the Gerards. I hoped to calm the murderous political situation. The wine was poured and we all drank a toast to letting bygones be bygones. Hennebert immediately fell choking to the ground.''
-===André's House===
-*'''Old Woman (Mother of André):''' ''My son ran to the apothecary. The one near the post office.''
-===Apothecary===
-*'''André (The victim's servant):''' ''I didn't know anything happened to Monsieur Hennebert. After I poured the wine, I stepped back to the servant's area. A messenger came to tell me that my sainted mother had taken a turn for the worse. I ran home, then rushed here to buy her some medicine. The only unusual thing about the evening was that just before the wine was served, Madame Gerard's necklace broke. Monsieur Gerard tried to fix it at the table.''
-===Glassmaker's===
-*'''Robert (Glassmaker):''' ''I do a lot of work for important politicians. I don't much like folks nosing about. Get on out of here.''
-===Kitchen===
-*'''Alicia (The victim's maid:''' ''André brought in the wine. Armand here tasted it and André poured everyone a glass. They toasted and right away Monsieur looked all queer. Then he fell dead! I am worried about André, though. He's completely disappeared. Here, I'll give you his address, he might know something.''
-*'''Armand (The victim's bodyguard):''' ''It's my job to protect Monsieur Hennebert. I search everyone who enters this house for weapons or vials of poison. I also taste his food and wine before he has any. But I failed. I tasted the wine just before it was served by André. Like an idiot, I didn't taste it directly from his glass. A guest could have slipped poison into his empty glass long before the wine was poured.''

 ==Case Summary==
-Deputy Hennebert was targeted by the extreme left for being far too conservative an assemblyman. An attempt on his life lead him to hire Armand to protect him. A Black Office agent shot a hole in Hennebert's window as a way to prompt him to seek a reconciliation. The Black Office then used a hapless Gedet as a go-between to arrange an innocent-looking dinner party with Assemblyman Gerard, also known as Black Office agent "Patriot". The Black Office further used its knowledge of Prince Rupert drops to embed a poison in Mme Gerard's necklace. By this means, the Gerard's were able to evade Armand's scrutiny. Mme Gerard pretended to break her necklace and Gerard pretended to try and fix it, while in actuality breaking the tail of the Prince Rupert drop, releasing the poison into Hennebert's empty wine glass.
+Frustrated by Bella's father's refusal to allow him to marry Bella, Jamie MacArthur concocted a plan to make him disappear. He intercepted one of the grandmother's frequent errand lists and wrote the address of an out-of-the-way butcher's shop on it. He then knocked out the butcher, waited until Bella's father arrived, killed him and ground him up into haggis using the the implements found there at the butcher shop. He disposed of the bones by tossing them into an old butcher's sack and throwing it into the river.
