Even on that tiring journey, Bea found she was not worrying overmuch about how well Oliver was driving. She told him so, too. She also wanted to tell him that she was more worried about how thin and strained he had been looking these last few days, but refrained. She told herself that he was growing up fast, and that if he wanted the opinion of an elderly employer, he would ask for it. She would not intrude on his private life. Well, not yet, anyway. Maybe he’d snap out of it.
Oliver lifted Max
...’s mobile and laptop out of the car, and got out his key to let them in.
The house was uncannily silent.
There were no sounds of workmen, no cheerful banging and crashing as Bea and Oliver negotiated their way over the carpet in the hall. There was no noise of television, radio or clashing of pans in the kitchen. Maggie was not in, obviously.
Bea ran her hand over the top of the chest in the hall. There was more dust in the air and on the furniture. But no pinging of telephones, no one shouting.
