保持缄默

In Trent's Last Case (often called "the perfect detective story") you have to accept the premise that a giant of international finance, whose lightest frown makes Wall Street quiver like a chihuahua, will plot his own death so as to hang his secretary, and that the secretary when pinched will maintain an aristocratic silence; the old Etonian in him maybe.

在《特伦特的最后一个案件》（常常被称为完美无缺的侦探小说）中，你得接受这样的前提：一个稍一皱眉就会使华尔街索索发抖的国际金融巨头，为了要把自己的秘书送上纹刑架而策划自己的死亡，而且那个秘书给逼得走投无路时竟能保持高贵的缄默，也许那是他身上的伊顿使风（伊顿公学是英国一所最著名的贵族子弟中学）。
