Carolyn Jourdan - Nurse Phoebe 02 - the School for Mysteries
“In fact, she jogged ahead of them, leading them into a majestic two-story library with a mezzanine level balcony that ran around the perimeter of the room in a much larger version of the one where they’d met with the media people.
The docent led them up a carved wooden staircase to the balcony and opened a panel that allowed them to stand out of sight in a space behind the fireplace flue. They stepped into the dark space and the lady closed the door on them. They heard her light footfalls a...s she descended the stairs.
This hideaway was plenty large enough for Nick and Phoebe to sit down in. They sat side by side on the floor. It was oddly reminiscent of the darkroom, Phoebe thought. Once her eyes adjusted to the gloom, she could make out the fact that there was a door on either side of the little room. She supposed this was to allow passage around the room on the balcony level. It was a way to walk behind the chimney so you wouldn’t have to take the stairs down to the ground level and then climb back up on the other side of the fireplace.MoreLess
