Colonel+Archie+Easterbook


 * Character Analysis **

Colonel Archie Easterbrook is a character who is very sure of himself. He uses his seemingly formal reasoning to attempt to explain the events associated with the murder, even if it means openly contradicting his wife. If he doesn't agree with something he snorts "with impatience" because he is known to always openly express and believe his opinion and his opinion only (5). Colonel Easterbrook owns a revolver that mysteriously goes missing before the holdup. This is the only time in the book where he expresses any form of being unsure, because he doesn't want to be held responsible for anyone killed by his gun.
