Evidence
In an attempt to discover an explanation for Annie’s dislike of his mother’s cuisine, Thad painstakingly went through his mother’s assortment of recipe books. He searched for any clues that would point to an ingredient Annie didn’t like or even something that might be bothering her.

The enigma was only made more complex by his mother’s recipes, which he had believed would offer some answers. He became increasingly frustrated and thought he was at a standstill.
