Poisoned Ground: a Hakim And Arnold Mystery (Hakim & Arnold Mystery 3)
“Mr Cotton was looking particularly arrogant. She just wanted to go home.
‘Yes,’ she said.
‘I’ve forwarded my report regarding your activities with Dylan Smith to the Trust,’ he said. He coughed hard.
‘Thank you for letting me know.’ She wanted to tell him that she really didn’t give a shit what he did, but she stopped herself. Whichever way she looked at it, she’d have to find a new job soon and she may still need a reference from Cotton. If he’d deign to give her one. If being under investigat...ion by the Trust didn’t automatically preclude her from employment elsewhere.
‘Good night, Mrs Mayfield.’ ‘Good night,’ Shirley said.
He walked past her and she saw him leave the building. It was cold and dark outside and she’d had a bad day with two patients on Acute who were clearly too delusional to know what was real and what wasn’t. One of them was insisting that she contact some no win no fee legal firm about an accident that couldn’t have happened. In a way, Shirley relished the idea of presenting a firm of ambulance chasers with a story about her client, the singer Madonna and a poorly secured dustbin.MoreLess
