English Tea Murder
“Autumn was sitting by herself, but when Quentin boarded, he took the seat next to her. Lucy was seated just behind him, which gave her a clear view of his pink and freckled bald spot.
Lucy knew that some women found baldness sexy—it was even fashionable for young men to shave their heads—but she wasn’t a big fan of the look. She was glad that Bill still had a full head of hair and a thick beard, albeit dusted with gray. She thought of him fondly and wondered what he was doing at home and checked her watch. He was probably at work, she decided, and thinking about lunch. The thought made her feel a bit guilty since she wasn’t home to pack that lunch for him. She wondered how he was managing with the girls, the dog, and the household chores, in addition to the remodeling job he’d taken on in one of the big shingle-style cottages on Shore Drive. The owners were very wealthy—and very demanding.
It was noisy in the minibus as the driver accelerated and turned into the road. The engine was l...oud and everybody was talking, comparing their experiences at Hampton Court.MoreLess
