5d. Relief for suffering fan sealing last passage on top of Menabilly (2-7).

I have (pretty sure): ??-C?D?M?L

The puzzle has a Daphne du Maurier theme, and Menabilly is the house she leased in Cornwall that became the model for Manderley.

I don't know if you've seen the actual puzzle, but it is an odd one. Once get the theme, and almost half the answers pop in quickly. But those that are left (including several where the thematic linkage is as nominal as Menabilly here) contain some real stinkers. rb.
Yes, I've done the puzzle - sometimes squeezing a theme in works better than others.
