I think Camilla's role was a lot bigger, and that she was much closer to Henry than Richard, or the rest of the group realized. Out of everyone, Camilla was the one the most like Henry. She was relatively unfazed by Bunny's murder, a little guilt, but she doesn't unravel like the rest. What caused her more distress was the worsening abuse from her brother (my other theory is that the incest was one sided, something she tolerated out of survival and avoiding more violent abuse rather than desired. Evidence for a different post). My theory is that the reason Henry and Camilla got together in the first place is because he saw that she was like him in many ways-cold, sometimes cruel and willing to do the unthinkable. I suspect that she and Henry were on the same page much of the time, regardless of what the rest of the group believed, or what they told the rest of the group.
She was secretly calling him, 'whispering on the phone" and she had spent nights at his place. They must have talked, and she must have known certain things.
Sure, the Greek Class in TSH is pretty awful, but why do so many people forget that Richard is as awful as they are??
His thoughts about Camilla after she talks about Charles hurting her are what stand out to me, but he has plenty of other moments of cruelty, pettiness, shallowness and just plain being horrid. And he did go along with Bunny's murder just like the rest of them
He's the narrator, so we're inclined to feel sympathetic towards him, but he's an unreliable narrator at best and still does not present himself in the best light.

My favorite controversial TSH theory is that Richard is the one who pushed Bunny. Richard says in the beginning that hates authors who skip over the grisly parts of their crimes, but he does exactly that. It's all very vague. Henry is described as walking towards Bunny but that's all. Camilla checks to see if he's dead. We assume Henry pushed him, but it isn't said. It could have easily been Richard, who would have not only prevented his secrets from being exposed but secured his place in the group he idolized
(my other theory is that the farmer was killed by a mountain lion and they only found the corpse and believed they killed him, thus rendering Bunny's death and Henry's death absolutely senseless and pointless because there was nothing to cover up-making it very much like a Greek tragedy)

I love the dark circles under my eyes. They're my favourite 'flaw'. Sometimes, I even put a little makeup on them to make them more visible.
