liberally sprinkle french chalk (talcum powder) over the rear of the car and find the source of the leak.

lol i had this exact problem and it was rusty inner arch and had a hole in it. Take your seat belt trim off and look down there to see any holes.

Start by taking the boot carpet out, sprinkling the talc and waiting.

If nothing move on from there.

Well i think i found the problem ,
behind the rear light were the rear quater and the rear pannel behind the light joins together , there was a SLIGHT hole in the mastic ... so it was letting water by
