Just a Family Affair
“It had been gone midnight by the time she and Keith had said their rather solemn goodbyes the night before. Her plans might have changed somewhat in the light of his revelation, but they were watertight nevertheless. Never let it be said that Sandra Sherwyn couldn’t think on her feet, she thought, as she swept around the twenty-four-hour supermarket just outside Eldenbury.
Her heart had gone out to Keith as he had driven off from the Lygon Arms. He looked so vulnerable, alone at the wheel, his ...head silhouetted in the street lights. How awful for him, to be going back to an empty house knowing what was to come the next day. She couldn’t bear to imagine how he would feel when he woke, which was why she was now determined to get to Keeper’s Cottage as soon as possible. She didn’t want him to be alone any longer than he had to. Swiftly, she bought a Dan Brown paperback, a Sudoku puzzle book, a new sponge bag filled with men’s toiletries, several bottles of elderflower cordial and a bag of the barley sugar sweets she knew were his favourite.MoreLess
