Dateline: Rappanoc, Maryland -- The Ashcroft Estate

How can I get to the office before Veronica?

Have you tried...
...following her?
...going out the French Doors and around the house?
...going out the Back Porch and around the house?
...going out the sliding glass doors, through the garden, and southwest from the covered walkway?
If you have tried all these, you know that you can't get to the office before Veronica.
