Hot Seat
“I wondered what tale she’d spun for Sergeant Lucas to explain her presence so far from home.
I drove out to her place on Monday afternoon. Dylan and I hadn’t gotten back from Strasbourg until Sunday night. By the time we’d finished up with the police, it was too late to catch a flight or train home. We’d stayed the night in a hotel and first thing in the morning, we grabbed a train to Paris, then took the Eurostar into London.
Since Dylan had to go back to work at Ragged, Steve came with me for... backup and to be a witness. I didn’t want Jenni claiming I’d done something else to her. We arrived outside her place at two p.m. I tried her doorbell, but didn’t get a reply, so we parked across the street and bedded in until she came home.
‘Are you sure you want to do this?’ Steve said. ‘You’re not meant to have any contact with her. If she tells the plod, you’re buggered. Everything that’s happened will be small beer by comparison.’ ‘She won’t,’ I said, although it was more wishful thinking than a certainty.MoreLess
