Malice in the Cotswolds (2012)
“Hepzie rumbled jealously beside her, but the cat – Jennings, she thought – smugly kept its place, purring defiantly. She had spent some minutes working out the various features of the television, and now had it tuned, perhaps oddly, to Radio Three, which played Così Fan Tutte softly to her. Yvonne’s only radio was in her bedroom, she had discovered when she searched.
Her thoughts returned compulsively to the hour on the previous afternoon before she found Stevie’s body. Why had she not hear...d anything? If she had only had the good timing to look out of the front window at the right moment, she might have seen the killer depositing the body beyond the wall. A car must have drawn up, bundled the little boy out and then driven off again. Didn’t everybody subconsciously note the sounds of such a happening? If Thea didn’t, then her dog surely should have done.
It had to have happened while she was speaking to Jocelyn, as she and Gladwin had already concluded.MoreLess
