whose problem-solving skills and psychological finesse make her a shrewd detective, capable of rescuing herself and often her marriage in the bargain. But she can also be seen as a figure who wants to know too much, whose curiosity represents a betrayal of trust, as Edna St. Vincent Millay suggests in a Bluebeard poem: "And you did so profane me when you crept/Unto the threshold of this room to-night."
