A Calculating Heart
“‘I thought I might catch you before you went to court. Can I have a word?’ ‘Of course.’ Leo closed the door. He drew a piece of paper from his pocket and laid it on the desk in front of her. ‘A couple of things you may wish to consider in relation to our case.’ Ann looked at the piece of paper and saw an address written there, together with a couple of dates. ‘Now, without wishing to seem too mysterious, I think that you may find it useful to make certain enquiries at that address regarding two... drawings “Woman Bathing” and “The Circus Troupe”, both by Degas. I’ve written the names down, but I think you’re already familiar with them.’ ‘They’re the pictures from the Persephone. The ones destroyed in the fire.’ ‘Indeed.’ There was a long pause. ‘Right,’ said Leo with a smile, ‘I’ll see you in court shortly. By the way—’ he paused in the doorway ‘—are you busy, on Saturday?’ It had occurred to him that since Camilla wasn’t due back till Sunday, he might as well ask Ann if she’d like to go with him to the Treeves’ party.MoreLess
